The questioner : Regarding the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the hadith then he said at the end of it meaning he linked it to the will, of course, if He wills He will punish him, and if He wills He will forgive him. Some may say that this is like the saying of 'Isa ibn Maryam to his Lord (Mighty and Majestic) [Al-Ma'idah 5:118] So what is the answer to this objection?
The Shaykh : You want to say that this statement is made by those who declare as disbelievers those who abandon prayer

The questioner : No.
The Shaykh : Hmm, who is it that you want, who is it that says this statement, if
The questioner : An objection came to me
The Shaykh : No problem, the objection that you have and which we have not yet understood, is it in your mind that this statement is made by one who is among those who say that abandoning prayer is absolutely a declaration of disbelief?
The questioner : I do not know
The Shaykh : Or the opposite
The questioner : I do not know
The Shaykh : Okay, if so, let us see what is behind the veil, what is the objection
The questioner : The objection is that
The Shaykh : Is it what you raised, and nothing more?
The questioner : This is it
The Shaykh : Okay, clarify the objection for us, what is the similarity between the verse that Allah related about 'Isa and this hadith that the Messenger of Allah spoke, what is the similarity between the two matters?
The questioner : If He wills He will punish them, and if He wills He will forgive them
Five prayers have been written
