Is it permissible for a woman to remain with a husband who abandons prayer?

Question:
As for the third question, she says: What is the ruling on cohabiting with a husband who does not pray?

Answer:
She should descend to [the state of] praying. The ruling on him is the ruling of disbelief in the most correct opinion of the scholars. Some scholars said that he becomes a disbeliever by shirk (associating partners with Allah) but not by kufr (disbelief), and this is the well-known view in the three schools of jurisprudence. However, the correct view is that he is a major disbeliever. This is what is known from the Companions, the companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (may Allah be pleased with them), that he commits major kufr. Abdullah ibn Shaqiq al-Ghathifani, one of the Tabi'un, said: The Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not consider anything to be kufr before [abandoning] prayer. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in the hadith: (may Allah have mercy on him), and the people of the Sunan have it in a sound Sunan from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him). And Muslim narrated in his Sahih from Jabir ibn Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: and the Muslim and prayer. The correct view is that he is a disbeliever, and it is not permissible to remain with him. Rather, it is obligatory for her to leave him, and to prevent him from having access to her, until Allah grants him repentance and he repents. This is the correct view, and this is the obligatory duty. If he persists in his state, it is obligatory for her to seek a divorce and to separate from him, from the direction of Makkah, until he becomes a divorcee for her and it becomes haram (forbidden) for her to be with him. Yes.
