Insulting the treaty state of the Messenger and its effect on the treaty
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, the states of Denmark and Sweden.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
He says: The states of Denmark and Sweden insulted the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Does their treaty become invalid because of this, or is it up to the Imam?
The Shaykh:
It is up to the one in authority. But is it the state itself that insults, or individuals? If they are individuals, they do not take on the ruling of the state. However, if it is the state that has the treaty, the contracts, and the truce that insults, the one in authority looks into this.
