Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the supplication "O Ever-Living, O Self-Subsisting"?
Answer:
The intention, if the intention is that the students are alerted to these errors, we explain to them that from the outset we say: teach the students the correct creed. Some say, no, do not teach them the creed; this is takfir (declaring someone a disbeliever) and terrorism. They do not understand these matters unless they study the correct creed and know that it is not permissible to rebel against the one in authority, and it is not permissible to break the bond of obedience.
And it is not permissible to undermine security. This is in the creed; it is found in the creed. If they had studied the creed, they would have known these matters. They do not need weeks or months. They study the creed, and these matters are in it.
It contains the prohibition of baghy (armed rebellion against legitimate authority) and rebelling against the Muslims. It contains the prohibition of the Khawarij (an early sect that declared sinners disbelievers) school of thought. It contains the prohibition of highway robbery and undermining security. It contains the prohibition of theft and cutting off the hand of the thief. All of this is found in the creed. If the creed had been taught to the students in the correct manner, they would not have needed weeks or days. Yes.
