The Ruling on One Who Slaughters for Other Than Allah: Among the Nullifiers of Islam
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, some of the common Muslims practice some of the nullifiers of Islam, such as slaughtering for other than Allah. Is the one who does this considered an apostate to whom the rulings of apostasy are applied?
Answer:
Without a doubt, this is the greatest type of apostasy. Associating partners with Allah is the greatest type of apostasy. Slaughtering for other than Allah, calling for aid from the dead, and making vows to shrines—this is the greatest type of apostasy, because it is major shirk (associating partners with Allah), and it takes one out of the religion. The scholars mentioned, as the first thing they mentioned among the nullifiers of Islam, the first thing they mentioned was associating partners with Allah, Mighty and Majestic.
