May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: In the hadith of the Pond, a group of people will be brought, and it will be said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So, Honorable Shaykh, is this innovation specific to the people of innovation, or does it extend to the people of major sins and sins?
Answer:
It is regarding the people of apostasy, that they remained apostates, turning back on their heels. This is regarding the people of apostasy, may Allah protect us, who apostatized from the religion of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). How many apostatize from the religion of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)? By the hundreds, indeed by the thousands, they apostatize from the religion of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
