Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And this person says: If someone curses the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in public, knowing what he is doing and not out of ignorance, and by doing so intends to mislead the common people, is this considered apostasy from Islam?
Answer:
If he curses the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), or any one of them, because of their companionship with the Messenger of Allah, their support for him, and the jihad and knowledge they established, then he becomes an apostate by this, because he hates the religion. He did not hate the Companions for their personal selves, but he hated them for the religion they established and spread. So there is no doubt in his apostasy, because he hates the religion of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and he hates the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about whom the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:, Sunan Abi Dawud 4658Sahih (Al-Albani).
Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[At-Tawbah 9:117]. And those who followed [At-Tawbah 9:117], and He says (Glorified and Exalted is He): [At-Tawbah 9:100] It is [At-Tawbah 9:100].
He said (Glorified and Exalted is He):[Al-Fath 48:18] [Al-Fath 48:18]. He said at the end of the surah: [Al-Fath 48:29], [Al-Fath 48:29] Note His saying (Exalted is He): "to make the disbelievers angry." So no one should be angered by the Companions or hate the Companions except a disbeliever, a hypocrite who displays Islam and conceals disbelief. [Al-Fath 48:29].
As for the one who spoke about the Companions out of ignorance and imitation of those who curse them, and thought that they were on the right path, then he is mistaken without a doubt and has committed a forbidden act, but he does not reach the level of disbelief because he is excused by ignorance. Yes.

So there is no doubt in his apostasy, because he hates the religion of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and he hates the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about whom the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Do not curse my Companions; by Him in whose hand is my soul
لا تسبوا أصحابي، وهو الذي نفسي بيدهif one of you contributed the amount of gold equivalent to Uhud, it would not amount to as much as the mudd of one of them, or half of it.
لَوْ أَنْفَقَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِثْلَ أُحُدٍ ذَهَبًا مَا بَلَغَ مُدَّ أَحَدِهِمْ وَلاَ نَصِيفَهُAllah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:
Allah has already forgiven the Prophet and the Muhajireen and the Ansar
لَّقَد تَّابَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنصَارِAllah has already forgiven the Prophet and the Muhajireen and the Ansar who followed him in the hour of difficulty
لَّقَد تَّابَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنصَارِ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُ فِي سَاعَةِ الْعُسْرَةِAnd the first forerunners [in the faith] among the Muhajireen and the Ansar and those who followed them with good conduct - Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him, and He has prepared for them gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever. That is the great attainment.
وَالسَّابِقُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنصَارِ وَالَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُم بِإِحْسَانٍ رَّضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِي تَحْتَهَا الْأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا ذَٰلِكَthe great attainment.
الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُHe said (Glorified and Exalted is He):
Certainly was Allah pleased with the believers
لَّقَدْ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَwhen they pledged allegiance to you, [O Muhammad], under the tree, and He knew what was in their hearts, so He sent down tranquillity upon them and rewarded them with an imminent conquest
إِذْ يُبَايِعُونَكَ تَحْتَ الشَّجَرَةِ فَعَلِمَ مَا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ فَأَنزَلَ السَّكِينَةَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَأَثَابَهُمْ فَتْحًا قَرِيبًاMuhammad is the Messenger of Allah; and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating [in prayer], seeking bounty from Allah and [His] pleasure
مُّحَمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُ أَشِدَّاءُ عَلَى الْكُفَّارِ رُحَمَاءُ بَيْنَهُمْ تَرَاهُمْ رُكَّعًا سُجَّدًا يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَانًاTheir mark is on their faces from the trace of prostration. That is their description in the Torah. And their description in the Gospel is as a plant which produces its offshoots and strengthens them so they grow firm and stand upon their stalks, delighting the sowers - so that Allah may enrage by them the disbelievers
سِيمَاهُمْ فِي وُجُوهِهِم مِّنْ أَثَرِ السُّجُودِ ذَٰلِكَ مَثَلُهُمْ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ وَمَثَلُهُمْ فِي الْإِنجِيلِ كَزَرْعٍ أَخْرَجَ شَطْأَهُ فَآزَرَهُ فَاسْتَغْلَظَ فَاسْتَوَىٰ عَلَىٰ سُوقِهِ يُعْجِبُ الزُّرَّاعَ لِيَغِيظَ بِهِمُ الْكُفَّارَso that Allah may enrage by them the disbelievers
لِيَغِيظَ بِهِمُ الْكُفَّارَAs for the one who spoke about the Companions out of ignorance and imitation of those who curse them, and thought that they were on the right path, then he is mistaken without a doubt and has committed a forbidden act, but he does not reach the level of disbelief because he is excused by ignorance. Yes.
