The ruling on fighting a disbeliever without cause

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: What is the ruling on fighting a disbeliever without cause?

Answer:
One does not fight the disbeliever who calls to disbelief or attempts to drive people out of the Islamic religion into disbelief and apostasy; that one is fought. As for the peaceful disbeliever who is incapable of disbelief, such as a monk, a woman, or one like them, he is not fought.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
