The Definitive Statement on Cursing a Specific Person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: What is the definitive ruling on cursing a specific person?
Answer:
Because some say that it is permissible, while others say it is not permissible, but rather it is obligatory. It is permissible to make du'a (supplication). Even a disbeliever is not to be cursed. Even if his harm becomes severe, one makes du'a against him, without cursing. If you curse the disbelievers, the aggressors, and the oppressors, the person you intend is included among them without specifying him.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
