The ruling on one who commits major shirk (associating partners with Allah) and its effect on deeds
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If one says or does, do you remember all the acts of worship in the previous texts?
Answer:
Yes, whoever commits major shirk (associating partners with Allah), the kind that expels one from the religion, such as calling upon other than Allah, seeking aid from the dead, seeking aid from the dead and the absent, slaughtering for other than Allah, or making a vow for other than Allah at graves, shrines, trees, or stones, then this is a condition for all of his deeds, from the first to the last, as Allah the Exalted said:[Az-Zumar 39:65] among the losers. Allah the Exalted said: [Al-Furqan 25:23] Allah the Exalted said: [Al-Kahf 18:110] As for minor shirk, it does not invalidate the deeds, but it is a great sin that is not removed except by repentance; however, it does not negate the deeds, nor does it expel one from the religion, but it is among the greatest of sins and among the greatest of major sins. Yes. It is. Yes, if you know that major shirk is that… In the beginning, does it apply to trust?
This is a statement of ignorance; because shirk does not accept any deed with it, shirk does not accept any deed with it, if one commits shirk, he is in a state of ignorance, he does not know tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and does not know, and he has no one who teaches him, so we treat him in this world as we treat the mushriks (those who associate partners with Allah), we treat him in this world as we treat the mushriks, but as for what is between him and Allah, Allah knows best about that, this is up to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), but we treat him as we treat the mushriks, yes. No. They persist.
If the mushrik returns to Allah (Mighty and Majestic), he enters Paradise. And they persist in tawhid (the oneness of Allah)[Al-Anfal 8:38].
[Al-Anfal 8:38] Allah the Exalted said, then He proceeded: [Al-Ma'idah 5:73] [Al-Ma'idah 5:17] He said: [Al-Ma'idah 5:74] If they repent, Allah will accept their repentance. Yes.

And it was already revealed to you and to those before you that if you should associate [anything] with Allah, your work would surely become worthless, and you would surely
وَلَقَدْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكَ لَئِنْ أَشْرَكْتَ لَيَحْبَطَنَّ عَمَلُكَ وَلَتَكُونَنَّAnd We will regard what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed.
وَقَدِمْنَا إِلَىٰ مَا عَمِلُوا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ هَبَاءً مَّنثُورًاSo whoever would hope for the meeting with his Lord - let him do righteous work and not associate in the worship of his Lord anyone."
فَمَن كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا وَلَا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِ أَحَدًاThis is a statement of ignorance; because shirk does not accept any deed with it, shirk does not accept any deed with it, if one commits shirk, he is in a state of ignorance, he does not know tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and does not know, and he has no one who teaches him, so we treat him in this world as we treat the mushriks (those who associate partners with Allah), we treat him in this world as we treat the mushriks, but as for what is between him and Allah, Allah knows best about that, this is up to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), but we treat him as we treat the mushriks, yes. No. They persist.
If the mushrik returns to Allah (Mighty and Majestic), he enters Paradise. And they persist in tawhid (the oneness of Allah)
Say to those who have disbelieved [that] if they cease, what has previously occurred will be forgiven for them
قُل لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِن يَنتَهُوا يُغْفَرْ لَهُم مَّا قَدْ سَلَفَBut if they return [to hostility] - then the precedent of the former [rebellious] peoples has already taken place.
وَإِن يَعُودُوا فَقَدْ مَضَتْ سُنَّتُ الْأَوَّلِينَwho say, "Allah is the third of three."
الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَاثَةٍwho say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary
قَالُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَSo will they not repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
أَفَلَا يَتُوبُونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَيَسْتَغْفِرُونَهُ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
