The Ruling on One Who Received the Qur'an and Called Upon Other Than Allah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah answer you. The third question: What is the ruling on one who calls upon other than Allah while living among Muslims, and the Qur'an has reached him? Is he a Muslim who has been afflicted with shirk (associating partners with Allah), or is he a Muslim?
Answer:
If the Qur'an or the Sunnah has reached a person in a way that he would understand if he wished, and then he did not act upon it and did not accept it, the proof has been established against him, and he is not excused by ignorance, because the proof has reached him. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[Al-An'am 6:19]. Whether he lives among Muslims or among non-Muslims, anyone who receives the Qur'an in a way that he would comprehend if he wished to understand, and then does not act upon it, is not a Muslim and is not excused by ignorance.

And this Qur'an was revealed to me that I may warn you thereby and whomever it reaches.
وَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنُ لِأُنذِرَكُم بِهِ وَمَن بَلَغَ
