The answer

The ruling on the fasting of one who abandons prayer is based on the scholarly disagreement regarding their disbelief (kufr). According to the view that considers them a disbeliever, their fasting is invalid, and they are not required to make up (qada') for it upon repentance, as Allah Almighty says: "Say to those who disbelieved, if they cease, what has passed will be forgiven them." However, according to the view that they are not considered a disbeliever, which is the favored opinion (mufta bihi), their fasting is valid, and they must make up the days they missed in . They must also make up the prayers they abandoned.
