The answer

Abandoning prayer is one of the gravest sins and destructive acts; indeed, it is greater than adultery, theft, drinking alcohol, and killing a soul. Some scholars have even gone as far as to say that whoever abandons prayer is a disbeliever, outside the fold of Islam. One must be aware of this danger and hasten to perform prayer out of fear of Allah's wrath. Prayer has religious and worldly benefits; it brings goodness and blessings, repels evils, and causes expansion of sustenance, solace of the heart, expiation of misdeeds, and forgiveness of sins. Associating with righteous people who remind one of prayer, in addition to frequently supplicating to Allah for the rectification of the heart and steadfastness in religion, helps in maintaining it.
