Is a person who observes Salah

A: Whoever abandons fasting Ramadan out of denying the obligation is a Kafir (disbeliever) and their prayer is not valid. Whoever neglects it deliberately out of carelessness is not a Kafir according to the correct view and (Part No. 10; Page No. 144) their prayer is valid. Similarly, whoever does not pay Zakah denying its obligation is a Kafir and their prayer is not valid. But whoever does not pay it intentionally out of carelessness is not a Kafir and their prayer is valid. The same applies to whoever does not do hajj denying its obligation, they are considered a Kafir, but whoever neglects it heedlessly while able to perform it, they are not disbelievers and their prayer is valid.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
