Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person is advised not to be deceived by the people of bid'ah and superstitions, and he becomes angry at that innovator, and he slanders the advisor with some names and insults, is this person from the people of the Sunnah or not?
Answer:
By Allah, it is difficult, meaning that he defends the bid'ah and gets angry at the Sunnah. This person is in great danger. But perhaps he has ignorance, or anger, or pre-Islamic tribalism (jahiliyyah). If that goes away, he will return to his senses; he will return to his senses. But if he says this while feeling secure, he is in severe danger. Yes.
