The ruling on supplicating against the Jews and Christians in general

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some scholars say that supplicating against the Jews and Christians in general is an act of transgression. Is this correct?

Answer:
In general, one should not do so. However, it is permissible to supplicate against those among them who are aggressors. The ones who currently hold power among the Jews and Christians are aggressors; the disbelieving states of the Jews and Christians are aggressors, so one may supplicate against them. As for individual Jews and individual Christians, one does not supplicate against them in general.
