Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh! What is the ruling on one who insults Allah or the religion in a state of anger, given that he is afflicted with possession and sorcery?

Answer:
One who insults Allah or insults the religion has apostatized from the religion of Islam, unless he is not in his right mind, speaking words without reason. One whose reason is gone is not held accountable. But if he has his reason, his awareness, and his thought, then he has apostatized from the religion of Islam.
