Missing jumuah salaah

Q: I would like to know if one misses 3 jummuah salaah in a row are they out of the fold of Islam ...the person in question attempted to read jummuah but suffers from extreme waswaas. This made them really anxious so even though they did read 2 jummuahs ...both times while or after making wudhu they were certain there wudhu was broken due to a sound and Movement but ignored the above mentioned certainty as this happens to them really often for almost Each salaah recenetly ...the Person really does not want to leave Islam or come out of the fold of Islam but performing salaah is becoming so challenging and time consuming because they certain their wudhu is breaking either through movement of wind with a smell (odour) or dripping urine...this person suffers from very extreme waswaas and OCD and is struggling in desperate need or help!

A: No, one does not come out of the fold of Islam. However, this is a very serious act of transgression. Don't ever think of doing something like this.

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