The scope of the verse regarding one who commits certain sins, such as shaving the beard and letting the garment hang below the ankles
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does the verse include one who commits some of the doubtful matters, such as shaving the beard and letting the garment hang below the ankles?
Answer:
The matter on which there is consensus regarding its prohibition, yes. As for the matter in which there is disagreement, perhaps he followed one who holds this view due to a desire in his heart or a wish. This is like what we said: it is considered a sin, or a major sin among the major sins, but it does not amount to that. He is considered a human being and a sinner, yes. However, if he says, "Even if it contradicts the hadith, it is permissible for him, even if it contradicts the hadith," this is disbelief, may Allah protect us from it.
