Al-Kāfi - The Book of Belief and Disbelief 5ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ ٠َّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ حَ٠َانَ عَنْ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلا٠) عَنْ قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَ٠َنْ يَكْفُرْ بِالإي٠انِ فَقَدْ حَبِطَ عَ٠َلُهُ قَالَ تَرْكُ الْعَ٠َلِ الَّذِي أَقَرَّ بِهِ ٠ِنْ ذَلِكَ أَنْ يَتْرُكَ الصَّلاةَ ٠5.

Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu’alla ibn Muhammad from al- Hassan ibn Ali from Hammad ibn ‘Uthman from ‘Ubayd from Zurara who has said the following: “Once I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, ‘The deeds of anyone who rejects belief, certainly, become fruitless. He, on the Day of Judgment will be of those who lose.’ (5:5) The Imam said, ‘It is disregarding the deeds that he has confessed to be true.

Of such deeds is disregarding prayer without suffering from illness or being preoccupied. ’” شهور - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (11/113))
