The ruling on cursing a disbeliever by name
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And this person asks: What is the ruling on cursing a disbeliever by name?
Answer:
You do not know how his life will end? It is not permissible to curse by name except for one who is mentioned by name in the Qur'an or the Sunnah; then he is cursed as he was cursed in the Qur'an or the Sunnah. As for one who is not named, you may say,[Al-Baqarah 2:89] But you do not curse a specific individual, because you do not know how his life will end? Or if he is dead, you do not know how his life ended? Yes.

May Allah reward you,
