The Ruling on Dealing with Those Who Differ in Creed and Branches
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Fellow scholars, I have reached in my speech the point of delaying with the Muslims and their anger. Does this delay resemble that?
The Shaykh:
Stay away from the other.
The questioner:
He says: So this includes the case of those who do not disagree on their stupidity.
The Shaykh:
Disagreement varies. If the disagreement is in creed, no, we do not draw near to them nor do we agree with them. But if the disagreement is in matters other than creed, in the branches and jurisprudence, then we take the statement of the one who has evidence with him, and we do not take the statement of the one who contradicts the evidence. We have evidence from the Book and the Sunnah, so we take the statement that has evidence, and we leave the contradictory statement. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you
