The answer

Delaying prayer beyond its prescribed time without a valid excuse is a great sin and a serious transgression that necessitates repentance. However, it does not invalidate the marriage contract nor does it require its renewal. If a Muslim repents with sincere repentance, let him praise Allah and rejoice in the acceptance of his repentance.
