Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: The one who does not mock any part of the religion, but he lightens the commands and prohibitions of the religion. For example, he says that free mixing with women and interacting with them is an easy matter, and the like of these matters. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
His ruling is that he calls to sins, he calls to free mixing, he makes its status easy, and he diminishes its seriousness. So this is a sinner against Allah the Exalted and a caller to evil. Yes, and he does not forbid what is wrong; he approves of what is wrong. Yes.
