Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner asks: Is the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) who took from the war spoils to be eternally in the Fire?
Answer:
Who told you that he is eternally in it? This is a matter of divine warning. A believer enters the Fire for a major sin; if Allah does not pardon him, he enters the Fire and is punished in it. He may even become a charred coal that burns, and then he comes out of the Fire afterward, still a believer, having been punished for his major sin if Allah did not pardon him. Yes.
