Translation text: The Ruling of Living with Someone who doesn't Pray - Imām Ibn Baz السائل: ما حكم من عاش مع من لا يصلي ولا يصوم، وجالسه وأكل معه في صحن واحد هل يرتكب إثما ؟ Questioner: What is the ruling of living with someone who doesn't pray or fast, sitting, and eating with him from the same plate, Is it a sin? الشيخ: الواجب النصيحة والإنكار، وأن يبين له أن هذا أمر منكر عظيم وأن ترك الصلاة كفر، It is obligatory to advise, disapprove, and clarify to him that this is a great evil and that abandoning Ṣalāh is Kufr (major disbelief). فإذا ألجئ إلى أكل معه من غير اتخاذه صاحبا ومن غير التساهل بأمره، So, if he was forced to eat with him without making him a companion and without becoming lenient in dealing with him, بل جمعتهم المائدة أو الضيافة من غير قصد الصحبة فلا حرج عليه بذلك Rather, they end up gathering on one table or being invited without the intent of companionship, then there's no problem with that. لكن لا يتخذه صاحبا ولا يتساهل معه بل يهجره، However, he must not take him as a companion or  become lenient with him. In fact, he abandons him. يستحق الهجر حتى يتوب إلى الله؛ He should abandon him so that he repents to Allāh. لأن ترك الصلاة كفر لقوله صلى الله عليه وسلم : بين الرجل وبين الكفر والشرك ترك (الصلاة) That's because abandoning ṣalāh is kufr as in the saying of the Prophet ﷺ "Between man and kufr (disbelief) and shirk (polytheism) is abandoning (Ṣalāh)." وقوله عليه الصلاة والسلام العهد الذي بيننا وبينهم الصلاة فمن تركها فقد كفر)، And the saying of the Prophet ﷺ "The covenant that is between us and them is Ṣalāh, whoever abandons it has disbelieved." فالواجب هجره والإنكار عليه، So it is obligatory to abandon him and denounce it (i.e., abandoning the salah). أما لو أكل في وليمة معه أو طعام جمعه به عارض من غير اتخاذه صاحبا ولا جليسا فلا حرج في ذلك، As for eating with him in a feast or eating together coincidentally, without taking him as a companion then there is no problem with that. الشيء العارض الذي لا يتضمن تساهلاً معه. The objection is that he shouldn't become lenient along with him. ----------------------------------------------------- Rabbaniyeen ربانيين 🔴اليوتيوب🔴👇 https://www.youtube.com/@rabbaniyeen 🔴الانستجرام🔴👇 https://www.instagram.com/rabbaniyeen/ 🔴التيليغرام🔴👇 https://t.me/Rabbaniyeen
