A Refutation of Those Who Deny the Consensus of the Salaf on Declaring the Abandoner of Action a Disbeliever
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks, saying: So-and-so states in his book, and I have clarified in this book of mine the invalidity of the claim that the Salaf agreed on declaring the one who abandons the actions of the limbs a disbeliever, and that not declaring the one who abandons the actions of the limbs a disbeliever is the view of the Murji'ah. Then he said in the course of his book: “Even the two Shaykhs (may Allah have mercy on them), who are scholars of our land, agreed, as previously explained, that the one who does not declare a disbeliever for abandoning the actions of the limbs—his statement is one of the views of the people of the Sunnah, and he does not depart from the people of the Sunnah with that statement.” So what is your response, may Allah preserve you?
Answer:
This is nonsense that we do not pay attention to and do not waste our time on. This is part of the false nonsense that contradicts the evidence. Yes.
