Failing to do your 5 prayers results in sin and also according to some sources, the punishment of missing one single prayer is 70 years in hell. But on the other hand there are also people who say this is not obligatory and not sinful Firstgain the Islamic foundation, As we draw closer to Allah, we will then have the desire and ability to perform the voluntary acts alongside the obligatory ones. and more importantly, what the man does not mean. The man is saying he will pray but only the obligatory prayers, give the mandatory charity (zakat), only fast during Ramadan Withregard to the Sunnah prayers that come after the obligatory prayer, such as the Sunnah prayer that comes after Zuhr and the Sunnah prayers of Maghrib and 'Isha', the time for each of them begins when the obligatory prayer has been completed and lasts until the time of the obligatory prayer ends and the time for the next prayer begins theobligatory daily prayers There are five obligatory daily prayers: (1) midday (ẓuhr) and (2) afternoon (ʿaṣr) prayers - each of these consists of four units (rakʿahs); (3) after sunset (maghrib), which is three rakʿahs; (4) evening (ʿishāʾ), which is four rakʿahs; and (5) morning (ṣubḥ), which is two rakʿahs. gDtUd0.
