Ignorance of religious rites and duties is not excusable in Islam because

Ignorance of religious rites and duties is not excusable in Islam because it is obligatory on all Muslims to seek knowledge. This means that it is the responsibility of every Muslim to learn about their religion and the practices they need to follow. While it is true that many Muslims can read and write Arabic and that books on Islamic jurisprudence have been translated into many languages, it is the individual's responsibility to seek out and acquire this knowledge. The Islamic system of education is highly developed all over the world, but ultimately it is up to the individual to seek out and take advantage of these opportunities to learn about their religion. Thus, it is important for every Muslim to seek knowledge and not use ignorance as an excuse for not following their religious obligations.
