Summary
The marriage of a person who does not perform prayer is ruled valid. According to the Shafi'i school, one who abandons prayer out of laziness commits a major sin but does not leave Islam. The fatwa also notes there is no guarantee that such a person can lead his family in a way that earns Allah's pleasure.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Berkenaan dengan perkahwinan, hukumnya sah kerana jika seseorang itu meninggalkan solat kerana malas, dia dikira berdosa besar menurut mazhab al-Syafie tetapi tidak mengeluarkan seseorang itu daripada Islam.
