Disavowal of the polytheists and declaring those who claim to be Muslims to be disbelievers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Does the disavowal of the polytheists necessitate that we declare them to be disbelievers, even if they claim to be Muslims?
Answer:
Claiming to be a Muslim is not sufficient; it is not sufficient until they prove their claim. Mere claiming, while they do not practice Islam, do not pray, do not pay zakah, or are not a Muslim, or claim to be a Muslim while they associate partners with Allah and call upon other than Allah, this is not sufficient. Yes.
