Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If I praise polytheists for some of their traits, such as generosity, good character, or bravery, but I do not approve of their religion and I hate them, is my action correct?
Answer:
What is the reason for this? You praise polytheists? There is no reason for this. Even if they have traits of bravery or generosity or the like, they are not to be praised or commended.
