The Ruling on Declaring the Rafidah and the Shi'ah to be Disbelievers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And do we call the Rafidah Shi'ah horses, or does that apply only to their community? And to what extent is Fatima a Muslim Shi'i?

Answer:
Say: Whoever commits one of the nullifiers of Islam is a disbeliever, whether he is from the Rafidah or from anyone else. We do not declare the Rafidah disbelievers merely by the name that they are Rafidah or that they are Shi'ah. No, rather we say: whoever commits one of the nullifiers of Islam, he becomes a disbeliever, from whichever sect he may be. Yes.
