The Ruling on a Man Praying While in a State of Major Ritual Impurity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: If a man prays while in a state of major ritual impurity, is this act considered apostasy from Islam?
Answer:
If he did it intentionally, it is an error. The Hanafis hold that if a man prays intentionally while not in a state of ablution, he becomes an apostate from Islam, because he becomes one who treats the prayer with contempt. So the matter is very serious. Yes.
