The ruling on making way for a disbeliever in a car
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a disbeliever is driving a car and wants to overtake from the left lane, should I make way for him, even though traffic regulations encourage doing so?
Answer:
What did you say? That he should make way for him? Yes, that he should make way for him. Yes, meaning, may He be Exalted. It is correct in traffic, there is no doubt, it is correct in traffic on the road, but he does not give him the entire road; rather, he gives him the edge of the road. This is what is prescribed.
