The Position on Those Who Incite the Youth Against the Rulers and Then Disavow It
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: What is our position, may Allah protect you, toward those groups who incite the youth against their rulers, and then when corruption occurs in the lands, they come out to condemn it and clarify that they were not the original nucleus of this great evil?
Answer:
This is the method of the hypocrites from before. They are the ones who sow evil among the Muslims, and then when its effects appear, they disavow it in order to remove the accusation from themselves. This is the affair of the hypocrites. However, if this is their work of returning to the truth and the correct path, Allah accepts the repentance of whoever repents. If they say, "By Allah, we have erred, and now we repent to Allah and return to the correct path," their repentance is accepted. But if they remain upon the ideology but feign its opposite for the sake of deception and stratagem, this is the method of the hypocrites. Yes.
