Reminding a person to perform salaah

Question

A woman assists by feeding the poor with zakaah donations of food, hampers and vouchers, clothing etc. The problem is that this person does not perform salah at all. She's not listening to me reminding her. How will this affect this person when leaving this world in this state?

Answer

By reminding her, you have done your duty. After salaah, you should make dua for her that Allah Ta’ala bless her with the tawfeeq to punctually perform her salaah.

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