Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on the one who says, "Religion is for Allah and the homeland is for everyone"?
Answer:
This is the statement of the secularists and liberals who do not include the homeland and worldly affairs under the rule of Allah and the Shari'ah. They want to restrict religion to worship only, excluding transactions, the lawful, and the forbidden. This is the statement of the atheists and secularists. It is a false statement. The entire religion and the whole of this world belong to Allah the Exalted. Religion and the world all belong to Allah, and all of it is subject to Allah's decrees and legislative rulings. There is nothing that falls outside the rule of Allah. Yes.
