The ruling on cursing the religion in a state of anger
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is another questioner who says, may Allah preserve you, what is the ruling on cursing the religion in a state of anger?
Answer:
It is not permissible to curse the religion in any state; it is forbidden. However, in a state other than anger, it constitutes apostasy from Islam. As for anger that is accompanied by a loss of consciousness, that is the state in which one is excused. But as for anger in which one is aware of what he is saying, it is not permissible for him to curse the religion, or pronounce a divorce, or do anything else of that sort. Anger falls into three categories, as the scholars have mentioned: anger that is overwhelming, in which one does not perceive what he is saying.
So this person is not held accountable. Anger in its initial stages. Anger in the beginning. This is something from which no one is safe, and it has no ruling. Moderate anger, in which one is aware of what he is saying, but it is above the initial stages, like the initial stages. It is not permissible for him to utter forbidden words, or pronounce a divorce, or curse the religion. And this is more severe. This is apostasy from the religion of Islam. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
