The question

What is the ruling of the religion regarding stopping prayer and losing the desire for it, and practicing masturbation almost daily? Does the religion prevent a woman from being a working person, an owner, and having opinions and stances? Do civilizations progress only through knowledge, order, and work? And what is the ruling of the religion regarding someone who outwardly claims commitment to religion while being lazy and deceitful?

The answer

One who abandons prayer out of laziness is a disbeliever with major disbelief, and one who abandons it out of denial is a disbeliever by consensus, and repentance from this is obligatory.

Islam commanded the to honor and protect women, and it did not prevent them from expressing their opinions or seeking knowledge; the lives of the female Companions are proof of this.

Islamic rulings are from Allah and are not man-made, and a Muslim is required to submit to Allah's law and perfect his belief.

There is no contradiction between adhering to Allah's law and developing the earth and achieving material progress; for Islam calls for perfecting work and striving diligently.

(For more benefit, one can refer to fatwas related to masturbation).
