Natural love for a disbeliever and religious love
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: There are some who deny natural love, claiming that it is not permissible for a Muslim to love a disbeliever, even naturally.
Answer:
Natural love is not part of the religion; it is a human nature, so it is not from the religion. Religious love is loving him for the sake of his religion, for what he is upon. That is what is forbidden. As for natural love, it is human; a person cannot rid himself of it, but he must not let it override religious love. He must not let it override it. Yes.
