I read in some of your answers that if a person fasts but does not
pray then his fasting is not valid. What about the opposite; if a
person praysbut does not fast, or praysbut does not pay Zakat,
orperforms hajj but does not pray?.
Praise be to Allaah.
The one who does not fast Ramadaan because he denies that it is
obligatory is a kaafir and his prayer is not valid. Theone who does
not do it deliberately and out of carelessness is not a kaafir,
according to the correct view, and his prayer is valid. The one who
does not pay the obligatory zakaah because he denies that it is
obligatory is a kaafir and his prayer is not valid.The one who does
not do it deliberately and out of carelessness is not a kaafirand his
prayer is valid. The same applies to Hajj; the one who does not do it
because he denies that it is obligatory is a kaafir, but the one who
does notdo it although he is able to do it is not a kaafir and his
prayer is valid.
Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa'imah li'l-Buhooth al-'Ilmiyyah wa'l-Ifta (10/143, 144)
The one who does not pray is a kaafir and an apostate according to the
correct scholarly view, so no act of worship that he does is valid.
