The Ruling on the Phrase "May Allah's Curse Be Upon Israel"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some of the common people say, “May the curse of Allah be upon Israel,” meaning the Jews. Is this phrase permissible?

Answer:
It is not permissible. Israel (peace be upon him) is Ya’qub, a prophet among the prophets of Allah. So do not say, “May the curse of Allah be upon Israel.” Say, “May the curse of Allah be upon the Children of Israel.” Yes.
