Question:
This questioner says: May Allah reward you. What is the ruling on the one who says that these matters—the punishment of the grave, the scales, and the reckoning—are not real, and that he does not believe in them?
Answer:
If he does not believe in them, he is a disbeliever. If he denies any of the matters of the Hereafter, and evidence for it has come from the Book and the Sunnah, and he knows this—he knows that evidence has come for it—but he says, “Even if evidence came, I do not believe this,” this person is a disbeliever without doubt. Yes.
