The Ruling on Minor Shirk: Does It Fall Under Divine Will?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding minor shirk, is it within the scope of divine will or not?
Answer:
Regarding the place of the caliphate, the correct view is that Allah does not decree it, but He does not cause its perpetrator to remain in the Fire forever. He is punished according to his degree, but he is not kept in the Fire eternally as is the case with major shirk.
