Hatred of the Disbelievers and Its Relationship to Dealing with Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Does hating the disbelievers and polytheists require not dealing with them?
Answer:
No. Whoever says that we do not deal with disbelievers in permissible matters, trade, expertise, or industries, has erred. Allah the Exalted has permitted dealing with them in these matters. This does not indicate love for them; it indicates the exchange of benefits. They do not bestow a favor upon us; rather, we buy from them for a price. We buy from them with our money, so they have no favor over us in this.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
