Questions on the Explanation of the Book of Nullifiers of Islam
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: A scholar appeared and was mourning a Christian man named Edward Said, asking Allah to replace him with something better for the Ummah (the Muslim community). It is said that we consider Arab Christians to be Muslims in terms of culture and civilization, even if they are not Muslims in their creed and religion. Is this statement correct? And is it considered one of the nullifiers of Islam?
Answer:
This statement is invalid (batil), and it is not attributed to the Muslims. This statement is not considered to have come from the Muslims, but rather it is attributed to the one who said it. If he does not declare the Christian to be a disbeliever, then he is a disbeliever. The one who does not declare the disbeliever to be a disbeliever is a disbeliever just like him.
