Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is the one who attributes earthquakes, winds, and storms to nature a disbeliever?

Answer:
If he does so intentionally, he is a disbeliever. But if he is ignorant and does not know, and the people say so and he says like them, then he errs but is not declared a disbeliever because he is ignorant. Yes.
