Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it correct to apply the name of the Khawarij to those who carry out bombings in these lands, knowing that some of them do not declare disbelief for major sins?
Answer:
That is the least of it; describing them as Khawarij is the least of it. If they consider this act permissible, they are disbelievers. If they do not consider it permissible but believe that they will receive reward for it and that it is jihad in the path of Allah, they are misguided, and their methodology is the methodology of the Khawarij, and their ruling is the ruling of the Khawarij. If they consider it permissible, they are disbelievers without doubt. Yes.
