Question:
Is the prayer valid behind the Jahmiyyah and the Asha'irah?
Answer:
We have given you a rule. We said that the one who denies the attributes or negates them, if he is deliberate and stubborn, is a disbeliever, so the prayer is not valid behind him. But if he is interpreting the text or following a scholar without knowing his evidence, then he is misguided and not a disbeliever. The prayer is valid behind a Muslim as long as he is upon Islam; the prayer is valid behind him. But if he is deliberate, then he is a disbeliever. Yes.
