Dealing with Those Who Differ in Creed and Branches
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: O people, may Allah be Blessed and Exalted, until the end of the wedding, what is the stance regarding dealing with Muslims and their grief?
The Shaykh:
Stay away from the other.
The questioner:
They say this includes those who differ from their families.
The Shaykh:
Disagreement varies. If the disagreement is in creed, no, we do not draw near to them or agree with them. But if the disagreement is in matters other than creed, in the branches and jurisprudence, then we accept the opinion of whoever is with us, and we do not accept the opinion of whoever contradicts the evidence. We have evidence from the Book and the Sunnah, so we accept the opinion that has evidence, and we leave the contradictory opinion.
