The ruling on one who pays zakah but does not pray
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
There is no god but Allah. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Does one who pays zakah but does not pray count as a Muslim?
The Shaykh:
No. Prayer is the pillar of Islam. His zakah and all his other deeds are not accepted until he establishes the prayer. There is no share in Islam for one who neglects the prayer.
