Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does a Rafidi have guardianship over a woman if she is a follower of the Sunnah? If not, does this apply to the other people of innovation, such as the Mu'tazilah and the Asha'irah, and others?
Answer:
One whose innovation is a cause of disbelief does not have guardianship over a Muslim woman, if his innovation entails apostasy and disbelief, whether he is a Rafidi or otherwise; it is not valid for him to take guardianship over a Muslim woman. However, if his innovation does not take him out of Islam, he has guardianship because he is a Muslim. Yes.
