The Ruling on Mocking People of Religion
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q337: The questioner says: I am in a house with my relatives and kin, and, praise be to Allah, I am turning to the Book of Allah and its commands. However, I face mockery from some of those around me. Do I receive reward for that, even though I am troubled by myself and by my commitment?
A337: Commitment involves a distinction; because some people are strict in their commitment and make things difficult for themselves, and this is not permissible. As for when the commitment is moderate in accordance with the command of Allah and His Messenger, with no strictness and no negligence, no excess and no falling short, then it is obligatory to remain steadfast upon this and not to pay attention to those who mock. So, patience with their mockery
is a reward for the Muslim and a sin for the mockers.
