(r) SIN FOR GIVING UP PRAYER.

Sin for giving up prayer

The object of prayer is to remember God. To deny to remember God by giving up prayer amounts to infidelity, because the distinguishing mark between Islam and infidelity is to remember only one God. The Holy Prophet therefore said : “ He who gives up prayer intentionally is indeed an infidel.” It is therefore the chief reason that prayer was dearest to the Prophet. He who demolishes prayer demolishes the chief pillar of Islam and consequently the sin of not praying is great. The Quran speaks about prayer for no less than 85 times, and hence it lays the greatest emphasis on prayer. The sin of giving up prayer can therefore be better imagined than described.
