Will the one who abandons prayer be eternally in the Fire?

Question:
Do those who do not pray not come out of the Fire, even if they are monotheists?
The one who abandons prayer?

Answer:
If he abandons prayer intentionally, the correct view is that it is major shirk (associating partners with Allah). We ask Allah for well-being.
Q: Is he eternally in the Fire?
The Shaykh: According to the view that it is major shirk, as is apparent from the hadith: We ask Allah for well-being.
Q: What about one who abandons it out of laziness?
The Shaykh: This is the point of disagreement, but the correct view is that he is a disbeliever. As for denying its obligation, there is scholarly consensus (ijma') that he is a disbeliever. If he denies its obligation, the scholars have agreed on his disbelief.
Q: Does the hadith imply that one who abandons it out of laziness has no prostration, and therefore does not come out of the Fire?
The Shaykh: This is part of the argument for declaring the one who abandons prayer a disbeliever.
Q: What if he abandons it at some times?
The Shaykh: The apparent meaning of the Sunnah is that he is a disbeliever.
