    The issue here lies in the usage of event.preventDefault(). It should be placed at the beginning of the event handler and not within the submitHandler. The submitHandler is a method provided by the jQuery Validate plugin, not by jQuery's event system. In this case, you do not actually have direct access to the event object for the submit event, so calling event.preventDefault() will not work.
Here's how you can modify your code to correctly use event.preventDefault():
$(".commentForm").on('submit', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    var form = $(this);
    if (!form.valid()) return; // You should add validation here

    var $fields = form.find('textarea'),
        url = form.attr('action'),
        data = form.serialize();
        
    $.ajax({
        dataType: "json",
        type: "post",
        url: url,
        data: data,
        cache: false,
        success: function(response) {
            $(`#commentSuccess-${data.article_id}`).slideDown(250).delay(2500).slideUp(250);
            $fields.val('');
        },
        error: function() {
            $(`#commentFail-${data.article_id}`).slideDown(250).delay(2500).slideUp(250);
        }
    });
});
This code attaches a 'submit' event handler to each form, then uses event.preventDefault() to prevent the form from being submitted the default way. If the form is valid, an AJAX request is made. Otherwise, the function returns and no AJAX request is made.
One more thing, you are using template strings (${...}) in your selectors inside the success and error callbacks. However, data.article_id does not seem to exist because data is a serialized string. You would need to pull the article_id from the form before serializing. Consider modifying the code to something like this:
$(".commentForm").on('submit', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    var form = $(this);
    if (!form.valid()) return; // You should add validation here

    var articleId = form.find('input[name="article_id"]').val(),
        $fields = form.find('textarea'),
        url = form.attr('action'),
        data = form.serialize();
        
    $.ajax({
        dataType: "json",
        type: "post",
        url: url,
        data: data,
        cache: false,
        success: function(response) {
            $(`#commentSuccess-${articleId}`).slideDown(250).delay(2500).slideUp(250);
            $fields.val('');
        },
        error: function() {
            $(`#commentFail-${articleId}`).slideDown(250).delay(2500).slideUp(250);
        }
    });
});
Here we're grabbing the article_id from the hidden input field before we serialize the form. This allows us to use it in our AJAX callbacks.s
