The Ruling on Obedience to a Created Being in Disobedience to the Creator

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah reward you. It is well known that many people call for many innovations, and they are pleased with them. What is the ruling on the one who commits an innovation when he is pleased with it?

Answer:
This Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) says
A creature is not to be obeyed when it involves disobedience to the "Creator.”لا طاعة لمخلوق في معصية الخالق
Mishkat al-Masabih 3696
, and he says that obedience is only in what is good. So, if one commands what is wrong, he is not to be obeyed, except for the one who is coerced. If the coerced person has a way out, but the one who is not coerced is not permitted to obey in disobedience to Allah (Mighty and Majestic). So, obedience to a created being in disobedience to the Creator. Yes.
