Said by: The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
Arabic:
بَيْنَ الْعَبْدِ وَبَيْنَ الْكُفْرِ تَرْكُ الصَّلَاةِ
English translation:
Between a servant and disbelief is the abandoning of prayer.
Reference: Widely reported in Islamic sources — [reference — to be verified]
💡 Explanation: This is a very strong warning. It does not mean we call a lazy Muslim a disbeliever — scholars explain it as showing how serious abandoning prayer is. Prayer is the clearest sign of faith, so when a person leaves it completely, the line between faith and disbelief becomes frighteningly thin.
💡 Remember:
This is a very strong warning.
