Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on disbelievers who die without the call of Islam having reached them or without them having heard of it? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
This is rare. It is rare for anyone on the face of the earth not to have been reached by the call of Islam after the jihad and after the current media outlets that broadcast the Qur'an and broadcast the call to Islam in all corners of the world. This is rare, but if it were to happen that someone did not hear anything about Islam and did not know about Islam and died in that state, he is among those of the period of ignorance (fatrah), and his case is left to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
