How can a woman commit to religion and abandon misguidance, especially with her abandoning prayer and hijab and committing sins, and her imminent move to live in a non-Islamic country?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Prayer is a great pillar of Islam, and abandoning it is a grave sin, considered disbelief by many scholars. The questioner must repent to Allah, be diligent in prayer, and make up for all the prayers she missed since puberty. She must also adhere to the hijab, avoid forbidden relationships, and stop smoking. Marriage to a person who does not pray, is ignorant of his religion, and lives in a land of disbelief is not recommended. The only solution for the questioner is to adhere to Allah's commands, shun prohibitions, and keep company with righteous women.
