📖 Commentary of Verse 48 (Surah Al-Mursalat)

"And when it is said to them: 'Perform Salaah,' they do not perform."

✅ Neglect of Salaah by the Disbelievers [43]

When the disbelievers are invited to embrace Islam and perform Salaah, they neither accept the faith nor observe the prayer. This shows that without Islam, they are not obligated to pray. Yet, the mention of Salaah highlights its immense importance — even disbelievers are blamed for neglecting it. Thus, abandoning Salaah is a major reason for punishment.
