Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man and his tribe are disbelievers, is it permissible for him to affiliate with someone other than his father and someone other than his tribe?
The Shaykh:
It is not permissible, my brother. It is not permissible for him to affiliate with anyone other than his father, even if his father is a disbeliever, nor with anyone other than his tribe, even if his tribe is disbelieving. He affiliates with them; that is his lineage.
The presenter:
He says: Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
Abraham was a disbeliever, and Abraham the Friend of Allah (peace be upon him) was a Messenger of Allah, yet he did not disavow him. He said, “You are not my father.” He kept saying, “O my father, O my father, O my father,” repeating “O my father” to him. And Noah (peace be upon him) did not disavow his son[Hud 11:42], so… Disbelief does not separate between… Disbelief does not invalidate lineage; disbelief does not invalidate lineage. Yes.
