The Ruling on a Foundling on Whom the Marks of Disbelievers Are Found
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a foundling is found with the marks of disbelievers on him, is he considered a disbeliever because of that?
Answer:
How? What are the marks of the disbelievers? They have marks, meaning, for example, a cross? This is not valid. One does not rule that a human being is a disbeliever because of this. It is not ruled that he is a disbeliever. Perhaps someone placed it on him to harm the foundling. This is not accepted. Yes.
