Some media personalities say: The reason some youth turn to the Khawarij methodology is that their fathers practiced plural marriage.

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, we saw on television a large number of analysts and media personalities who heavily criticize many men who practice plural marriage. They say that these Khawarij have fathers who are strict men who practice plural marriage, so they neglected their sons, the sons became favored, and they became enemies of the religion and the country. What is your view on linking the Khawarij with plural marriage?

Answer:
This is injustice and speaking about Allah without knowledge, and mocking the rulings of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). This speech is not permissible. I told you that the media generally follow the plots of the disbelievers, adopt the ideas of the disbelievers, and seek to please the disbelievers by blaming Islam and Muslims. This is injustice and aggression, and it is an accusation against Allah (Exalted and Majestic) in His rulings and legislation.
This speech is not permissible. It may constitute apostasy from the religion of Islam for the one who speaks it and says that plural marriage is of the Khawarij methodology, and that it causes the children to adopt the Khawarij methodology. This is a false statement, and if one does it intentionally, he becomes an apostate from the religion of Allah
That is because they disliked what Allah revealed, so He rendered worthless their deeds.ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَرِهُوا مَا أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ فَأَحْبَطَ أَعْمَالَهُمْ
[Muhammad 47:9]
and refuge is sought in Allah. Yes.
