Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A question that pleases your eminence says: When does one who hates the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) become a disbeliever with major disbelief?
Answer:
If he hates them for their religion and for what they stood for, then he is a disbeliever with major disbelief, just as the hypocrites are. Just as the hypocrites are. And Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said regarding the Companions when He mentioned them at the end of Surat al-Fath: “He said, Mighty and Majestic: ‘To make the disbelievers grieve because of them.’” So no one is grieved by the Companions and hates the Companions except a disbeliever. Yes.
