The ruling on zina being a means to shirk
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is zina a means to shirk?
Answer:
Zina is a desire or a means to shirk, but it is a major sin. Otherwise, it is driven by desire, so it is not shirk, nor is it a means to shirk; rather, it is open sinfulness, which is a departure from the religion of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
