Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh swore, what is the Muslim's position toward one who holds the beliefs of some of the sects?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
What is the Muslim's position toward one who holds the beliefs of some of the sects, such as the Asha'irah and the Sufiyyah and the like? Are they declared disbelievers after being advised? And does one greet them with the salam?
The Shaykh:
That is, they are advised to hold the correct creed. If they persist in the creed of the opponents, and boycotting them serves as a deterrent for them and encourages their repentance, they are boycotted. However, if boycotting them only increases their evil, they are not boycotted, but rather their error and misguidance are made clear to them, they are advised, and the advice continues, in the hope that Allah will guide them.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
