Question
Assalamu alaikum Mufti Sahab,
Yesterday night I was sleeping at my home my daughter 2 years old was disturbing to me I was tired and was in deep sleep, same time my wife was performing Isha salah around 1AM in another room, I woke up from the sleep in anger that why my wife is not stoping my daughter from disturbing me, I scold her and argument started she said “Kya my namaz nahi padna” I said in anger “Nahi padna” but my intention was not that am doig INKAR of namaz but due to anger I said dont pray my intention was dont pray at this time atleast take the baby away from me then pray. I know I have mistaken and am feeling guilty for what I have said. Immediately after this incident I have read Kalima Shahadat.
Mufti Sahab could you please tell me am I out of Islam and Is my Nikah valid or do I have to do Tajdeed Nikah?
Jazakumullah khair.
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
As Muslims, we are sensitive to our Aqaaid (beliefs), Tauheed (Oneness of Allah) and the fundamentals of Islam. We ought to abstain from whatever would contaminate our Imaan.
You state that you did not have any evil intentions of refuting Salaah. Accordingly, you did not commit an act of kufr and your Nikaah is still intact.
However, we advise you to refrain from such statements in the future.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
