The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) states,
Whoever does such-and-suchمن فعل كذا
has committed shirk, does this refer to minor shirk or major shirk?

The Shaykh:
It applies to all of them.

I mean, it depends on.

The Shaykh:
It depends on the person's state. It depends on the person's state and what is in his heart.
