The ruling on a foundling bearing the marks of disbelievers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
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?
The Shaykh:
What are they?
The questioner:
The marks of the disbelievers. I mean, for example, a cross.
The Shaykh:
That is not acceptable. One does not rule that this human being is a disbeliever because of that, as the one who placed it there may be someone seeking to harm the foundling. Therefore, this is not accepted.
