The ruling on being upset by describing the Jews and Christians as disbelievers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: If a person is upset by the description of the Jews, the Christians, and the worshippers of idols as disbelievers, does that constitute hypocrisy or one of the characteristics of the hypocrites?

Answer:
He is to be feared of apostasy; it is not hypocrisy. He is to be feared of apostasy, for he hates that the Jews were called disbelievers, or that the Christians were called disbelievers. What does he do with their saying:
Allah is the third of threeاللَّهَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَاثَةٍ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:73]
?
that Allah is Christ, the son of Maryإِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:17]
This is what is called a disbeliever. And it has been mentioned to us previously in the nullifiers of Islam that whoever does not declare the disbeliever to be a disbeliever is a disbeliever like him. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
