The Ruling on the Murji'ah and Whether They Are Among the People of the Sunnah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Is he considered to be among the People of the Sunnah, or among the Mutanabbih, or among the Mutanabbih, or among the People of the Sunnah? Is he to be shrouded?
The Shaykh:
Ijrā' (postponing of deeds) is not absolute disbelief. There is a distinction between the Ijrā' of the Jahmiyyah and the Ijrā' of others; it varies. Therefore, Ijrā' does not absolutely take one out of Islam, but in any case, it is an error. It is an error and it is misguidance. It does not take one out of Islam, and its adherents are Muslims, even if they erred in this issue. Even if they erred, their error does not take them out of Islam. Yes, the question?
The questioner:
That he should cover the distributed head of the Sunnah, because it is among the points of agreement.
The Shaykh:
The misguided... it is also difficult. Are the Murji'ah of the People of the Sunnah considered Muslims or not? If they are among the People of the Sunnah, they are among the Muslims. One is not among the People of the Sunnah unless he is a Muslim. But it is said that they erred in this doctrine. May Allah forgive them. This is an error, but otherwise they are Muslims and People of the Sunnah, and praise be to Allah. But this statement is an error. Yes.
