Missing Jumuah Salaah

· 25 Rabiʻ II 1436 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My question is what happens if we leave Friday's Salaah for three weeks consecutively? Will we become kaafir?

Answer

This is an extremely serious sin. One should sincerely repent to Allah Ta'ala for committing such a major sin and make a firm resolve that he will never repeat this in the future. However one will not come out of the fold of Islam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
