The Ruling on the Twelver Shi'ah Who Claim the Distortion of the Qur'an and the Disbelief of the Companions
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Do the Twelver Shi'ah, who claim the distortion of the Qur'an, the disbelief of the Companions, the fabrication regarding Aisha (may Allah be pleased with them all), and other beliefs of disbelief, count as disbelievers? And is there a distinction between their scholars and their common people?
Answer:
They are considered apostates. That is, if they believe that the Qur'an is incomplete or that it has been distorted, this is a departure from Islam. Or if they believe that their Imams legislate, benefit, harm, and are worshipped alongside Allah, and that they praise their companions, this is a departure from Islam. It is shirk (associating partners with Allah) with Allah the Exalted. Yes.
