The Impact of Displaying Admiration for Disbelievers on Tawhid

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Does displaying admiration for disbelievers and sympathizing with them invalidate a person's tawhid (the oneness of Allah)?

Answer:
Yes. If you admire the disbelievers and what they have, they possess the splendor of this world. There is no doubt that for them, the splendor of this world is a trial and a delusion. As for the Muslims, they may be poor, they may be, but they have faith, which nothing can compare to. As for these people, they were given [bounties] in this world, but they have no share or portion in the Hereafter. So which is better, the fortune of this world or the fortune of the Hereafter?
The Hereafter. But this does not mean that we should be indifferent to taking the beneficial means of learning crafts and inventions. Allah the Exalted said: But we limit happiness to the pleasures of this world and the enjoyments of this world; that is what is forbidden. We do not limit it to that. Yes.
