Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: Is this statement an act of disbelief, for the one who says that the Rafidah are on the right path, given that they are engaged in worshipping graves, slandering the Mothers of the Believers, and insulting the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them)?
Answer:
If he knows this and says that it is the truth, then he is a disbeliever. If he knows the acts of disbelief they possess and says that they are on the right path, then he is a disbeliever. But if he does not know and is ignorant because he hears them saying that these are like the four schools of jurisprudence, that they are followers of a school of jurisprudence like the four schools of jurisprudence, I say that this is an ignorant person. It should be explained to him, it should be explained to him that this is not correct, and that they are not like the four schools of jurisprudence. The four schools of jurisprudence have one creed and one religion, and they only differed in matters of independent legal reasoning in Islamic jurisprudence. As for the principles of faith, creed, the oneness of Allah, and the love of the Companions, the Tabi'un, and the righteous Salaf, they are all upon one religion and one creed. Yes.
