The Ruling on Disparaging a Muslim
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks about the ruling of the Shari'ah, in your view, regarding disparaging a Muslim?
Answer:
Disparaging a Muslim is a major sin among the major sins. Therefore, it is obligatory for a Muslim to respect, honor, and advise his fellow Muslim in his dealings with him. This is part of the Muslim's obligation toward his Muslim brother. The Muslim is to the Muslim like a building, where each part supports the other, as he (peace and blessings be upon him) interlaced his fingers. And the believers are like one body, as in the hadith:Sahih Muslim 2586a Yes.

الآخر إذا اشتكى منه عضو تداعى له سائر الجسد بالسهر والحمى.
