The Ruling on the Heart of a Specific Person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to rule that a specific person's heart is dead, diseased, or sound?

Answer:
No one knows the unseen except Allah, and no one knows the hearts except Allah. But we look at their actions and deeds and infer from them the state of their hearts.
