Is it permissible to pray in the mosques of the people of innovation?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Is it taken from the title of the chapter "Do not slaughter in a place where slaughter is performed for other than Allah" that one should not pray in the mosques of the people of innovation?

The Shaykh:
No, yes, is it?

The questioner:

The Shaykh:
Bid'ah (religious innovation) differs if it is an innovation of disbelief. If the mosque is one in which innovations of disbelief or shirk (associating partners with Allah) are practiced, then one does not pray in it. But if the innovation is less than shirk, less than disbelief, it is a sin among sins, and one does not leave the congregational prayer with them; one prays the congregational prayer with them. Yes.
