Does the one who commits a major sin leave the people of the Sunnah and the community?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Does the one who commits a major sin leave the circle of being among the people of the Sunnah and the community?

Answer:
I mean, this person has not attended the lessons before; this is his first time attending. We have been explaining this for years and saying that the Muslim is from the people of the Sunnah and the community, even if he is an open sinner. They are from the people of the Sunnah and the community as long as he has not committed disbelief. They are from the people of the Sunnah and the community, but he is an open sinner with deficient faith. He does not leave Islam, nor does he leave faith. So he is from the people of the Sunnah and the community. Yes.
