Being Negligent About Prayer(Namaz)
عن زرارة، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام)، قال: قال: لا تتهاون بصلاتك، فإن النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) قال عند موته: ليس مني من استخف بصلاته، ليس مني من شرب مسكرا، لا يرد على الحوض لا والله
Imam al-Baqir(as) says:
Do not be negligent with your prayer, for the Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) said at the time of his death: "Not from me is one who takes his prayer lightly, not from me is one who drinks intoxicants, they will not meet me at the Pool, by Allah."

Namaz: The pillar of Religion
عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) قال: الصلاة عمود الدين، مثلها كمثل عمود الفسطاط، إذا ثبت العمود ثبت الأوتاد والاطناب، وإذا مال العمود وانكسر لم يثبت وتد ولا طنب.
Imam Al-Baqir(as) says:
Prayer is the pillar of religion. Its example is like the pole of a tent - when the pole is firm, the pegs and ropes are firm. When the pole leans and breaks, no peg or rope remains firm.

Prayers won't be accepted if taken lightly
عن العيص بن القاسم قال: قال أبو عبد الله (عليه السلام): والله إنه ليأتي على الرجل خمسون سنة وما قبل الله منه صلاة واحدة، فأي شئ أشد من هذا، والله إنكم لتعرفون من جيرانكم وأصحابكم من لو كان يصلي لبعضكم ما قبلها منه لاستخفافه بها، إن الله لا يقبل إلا الحسن، فكيف يقبل ما يستخف به؟!.
Imam as-Sadeq(as) says:
By Allah, fifty years may pass over a man and Allah has not accepted a single prayer from him. What could be harder than this? By Allah, you know among your neighbors and companions those who, if they were to pray for some of you, it would not be accepted due to their taking it lightly. Indeed Allah only accepts what is good, so how would He accept what is taken lightly?!

Acceptance of Prayer Depends on Presence of Heart
إِنَّمَا لَكَ مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ مَا أَقْبَلْتَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْهَا فَإِنْ أَوْهَمَهَا كُلَّهَا أَوْ غَفَلَ عَنْ أَدَائِهَا لُفَّتْ فَضُرِبَ بِهَا وَجْهُ صَاحِبِهَا
Imam al-Baqir(as) says:
Only that part of your prayer in which you engage with your full attention is accepted. So if one is inattentive in all of it or careless in his performance of it, that same prayer is crumpled up and thrown back in his face.
