Statement on Who Will Be Driven Away from the Pond on the Day of Resurrection
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, one of the brothers mentioned in his speech regarding those who are driven away from the Pond on the Day of Resurrection that the one who shaves his beard is among those who are driven away from the Pond, because he is among those who introduced innovations after the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and opposed his Sunnah.
The Shaykh:
The intended meaning is those who are called out, and may Allah protect us, the people of apostasy who apostatized after the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). As for the sinners who did not apostatize from the message, they are not driven away from the Pond because they are Muslims, and they are Muslims, even if they have sins. The only ones who are driven away from the Pond are the people of innovation, specifically the innovations that necessitate apostasy, and may Allah protect us. Yes.
The questioner:
That is the issue.
The Shaykh:
That they remain apostates upon their innovations.
