Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a questioner for the program, Ahmad, who says: What is the ruling on tribal loyalty and looking down on others? May you be rewarded.
Answer:
This is one of the matters of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance (jahiliyyah): loyalty to tribes, or loyalty to a school of jurisprudence (madhhab), or loyalty to scholars, or loyalty to groups, sects, and parties. All of these are matters of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance, because Muslims are brothers; the believers are brothers, and there is no tribal loyalty among them. Therefore, it is obligatory for the Muslim to abandon tribal loyalty. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good,
