I obey my husband’s orders because I hate him for the sake of Allah, as he is one who abandons prayer and fasting. Will I be sinful?

Question:
My husband abandons prayer and fasting, and he neglects all of Allah’s obligations. He treats me badly, and I hate him for the sake of Allah, which makes me not respond to his requests many times. Will I be sinful if that happens to me? And as I told you, I only hate him for the sake of Allah. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
If what you say is true, that he abandons prayer and fasting, then he is not a Muslim. It is not enough that you do not obey him in some matters; rather, you must separate from him and leave him. It is not permissible for you to remain in his marriage. Allah the Exalted said: “Do not take as allies the disbelievers.” It is not permissible for you to remain with him. Rather, you must demand separation from him and leaving him. It is not enough that you stay with him and disobey him in some matters. Yes.
