The ruling on one who denies the word "Say" in the Qur'an

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on what he said?

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
What is the ruling on what he said? Because in every verse of the Qur'an, Allah mixes Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) with the word "Say." We have no need for the word "Say" because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has died, and it is only required of us to recite what comes after it.

The Shaykh:
This is explicit disbelief. This is denial of a word from the words of the Qur'an. Therefore, when some of them denied it, and he said, "Say, He is Allah, the One" A decision was issued by the World Islamic League declaring this person a disbeliever, may Allah protect us from that; because he denied a word from the Book of Allah, Mighty and Majestic.
"Say, He is Allah." This is from the words of the materialists who want to cause confusion among the people. This is well known. The one who said this is well known for deviation and materialism, may Allah protect us from that. Or is this the first deviation and materialism? Yes.
