What is the ruling on praying in the mosque if it will lead to harassment and arrest by the police, especially since congregational prayer is obligatory? And is everyone who pronounces the two testimonies considered a Muslim, especially in an environment where the manifestations of Islam are fought against? And is it considered disbelief if a person answers "no" when asked about performing prayers, out of fear of persecution?

We recommend being keen on beneficial knowledge, righteous deeds, and the companionship of the good. Congregational prayer is obligatory according to the most authoritative opinion, and it is permissible to miss it when there is fear for oneself from harm. Anyone who pronounces the Shahadah (definition) is a Muslim, unless they commit an act that nullifies Islam. A child is considered a Muslim, following their Muslim parents. You do not commit an act of disbelief if you say "no" out of fear of harm, if that is out of necessity.
