Does the Ummah agree on sins, shirk (associating partners with Allah), and zandaqah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you, Honorable Shaykh. A questioner asks: Can the Ummah agree on sins, shirk (associating partners with Allah), and zandaqah? He also asks: If a wife orders her husband to commit a sin against Allah and he obeys her, does she become an idol?

Answer:
The Ummah does not agree on misguidance, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
My community will not agree upon error.لا تجتمع أمتي على ضلالة.
He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
A group from my Ummah will remain manifestly upon the truth, and those who abandon them or oppose them will not harm them, until the command of Allah comes.لا تزال طائفة من أمتي على الحق ظاهرين لا يضرهم من خذلهم ولا من خالفهم حتى يأتي أمر الله
(Blessed and Exalted is He). So this Ummah does not agree on misguidance, and praise be to Allah. Rather, there must be among them those who uphold the truth, even if they are few.
