In this video, we share the ruling of fatwa of Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan (may Allah preserve him) regarding the one who deliberately misses even a single prayer. The Prophet ﷺ said: "The covenant that is between us and them is the prayer, so whoever abandons it has committed kufr." 📌 Shaykh al-Fawzan was asked: If someone leaves one prayer deliberately, does he become a disbeliever because of that? ✅ The Shaykh answered: Yes. He becomes a disbeliever. He must: 1. Repent to Allah. 2. Enter into Islam again. 3. Pray the prayer he deliberately abandoned. ------ 📚 Citations & References: 📌 1.
