Will a person who does not practise Islam enter Jannah?

Question

If a person believes in Allah, salah, fasting, zakah, hajj, etc. and all the compulsory things but does't practice them, is he still a Muslim and would he enter Jannah one day?

Answer

Not practising does not take you out of Islam, but you will definitely complicate the process. Your entry may be delayed or you may go through other difficult complications.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
