The answer

The issue of someone who abandons prayer out of laziness does not render him an apostate according to the majority of scholars. However, combining two prayers without a valid excuse is considered a grave sin. If a person suffers from urinary incontinence, some scholars permit him to combine two prayers; otherwise, the obligation is to perform each prayer at its prescribed time.
