The ruling on describing a person as having low morals
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. A person accused me of having low morals. Does this phrase count as accusing a chaste person of fornication, and do I have the right to file a lawsuit against him?
Answer:
No, it is not explicit. Qadhf (falsely accusing someone of zina) is when one says, "So-and-so is a fornicator" or "So-and-so is a sodomite," which is an accusation of fornication. But saying someone has low morals does not even qualify as qadhf. This is insult; it is a type of insult.
