How will the one who abandoned prayer be accounted for on the Sirat (Bridge) on the Day of Resurrection?
Whoever completely abandons prayer, whether out of denial or intentionally, will enter Hellfire because he is a disbeliever. Allah Almighty said: (Indeed, Allah will gather the hypocrites and disbelievers in Hell all together). And the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: (Indeed, between a man and disbelief is the abandonment of prayer). And Allah has threatened those who are negligent in prayer with woe in Hell, as Allah Almighty said: (So woe to those who pray [But] who are heedless of their prayer). And the one who abandons prayer will not cross the Sirat, for prayer is the first thing a servant will be held accountable for on the Day of Judgment. If it is sound, he will succeed; and if it is corrupt, he will fail and lose.
