Insulting the religion in a state of anger and its effect on Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: I went for Hajj, and after returning to the country, a dispute occurred between me and my wife due to a quarrel with the neighbors. Without realizing it, and may Allah protect us, I uttered insults against the religion. Then I regretted it deeply. I went for Hajj again, and after returning to the country, I again insulted the religion due to a quarrel with my son and his uncle.

The Shaykh:
There is no power and no strength.

The questioner:
I did not know what had come out of me until one of those present alerted me. So, will my Hajj be accepted in both instances? Is my Hajj valid? And what is the expiation for that? Please advise us. May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh:
You must repent to Allah. This is a great danger. You must repent to Allah. If you repent, your Hajj is valid. Deeds are only invalidated if a person dies upon disbelief; then his deeds are invalidated, because Allah said, “And they died while they were disbelievers.” So he dies while he is a disbeliever. But if he embraces Islam and repents, Allah the Exalted preserves his deeds for him and grants him his deeds. So you must repent and beware of the evil of your tongue. If something came from you while you were not in your right mind, there is no blame on you.

Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1423Hasan (Darussalam)
But the point is that it is obligatory for you to be cautious and guard your tongue from insults and other sins. Insulting the religion or insulting Allah is the greatest disbelief. We seek refuge in Allah. So it is obligatory to be cautious and to make a sincere repentance by regretting what has passed, abandoning it, and being cautious of returning to it. Whenever your repentance is sincere, Allah will accept your repentance. Yes.
