They will answer: we were not among those who were performing prayer.
If it is commanded in verse 20: 14 to Messenger and believers to steadfast prayer in order to establish Dhikree-Adhikr, to the Arabic Qur’an Reading Fujjar who perform prayer without testifying Adhikr, as told in verses 75: 31-32 it will be told: then you didn’t testify the Truth-Adhikr, and so you didn’t perform prayer, but you rejected and turned back. It is told in verses 39: 58-59 that to any Fujjar who didn’t testify the Best-Adhikr, Lord will tell him that you were among the disbelievers. Today since Adhikr is formed as a Book, without becoming believer with Adhikr-the Permission, no deed will accepted from him, nor will get answer to the prayer for him as explained in verse 2: 186. Moreover, he will get punishment of Hellfire being fine for leading a life here aimlessly and heedlessly as explained in verses 9: 67-68; 18: 101; 25: 34, 65-66. See explanation 9: 31-33 and 11: 88.
