The Ruling on Greeting the One Who Abandons Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does one greet the one who abandons prayer or not?

Answer:
If it is hoped that he will accept the advice and it is hoped that he will repent, then greet him, for this is what leads to his acceptance and conversation with him. But if he is determined to abandon prayer and does not accept the advice, then do not greet him.
