Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Does prioritizing the commission of a sin from among sins over the performance of an order from among Allah's orders fall under the category of shirk (associating partners with Allah)-based love?

Answer:
It falls under the category of sin. How is it love? The one who opposes Allah's order is a sinner, and sins vary from kufr (disbelief) to fisq (open sinfulness) to sins below that; sins differ.
