The Ruling on Cursing the Religion and Its People

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on cursing the religion and the people of the religion, and insulting people with that?

Answer:
Cursing the religion is a rejection of the religion of Islam, and cursing the people of the religion is also a rejection of Islam. Therefore, this is not permissible. He must repent to Allah, Mighty and Majestic. In the Qur'an, when they said, "We have not seen anyone like these reciters of ours; they are the most greedy in appetite, the most false in their claims, and the most cowardly in battle," Allah ruled that they were apostates. And when they came to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) to apologize, Allah revealed to him:
Make no excuse; you have disbelieved after your belief.لَا تَعْتَذِرُوا قَدْ كَفَرْتُم بَعْدَ إِيمَانِكُمْ
[At-Tawbah 9:66]
. Yes. May Allah reward you. We move on to another questioner. Repentance, but he must repent to Allah. The door of repentance is open. If something has happened from him, let him hasten to repent, and not return to such a thing. Yes.
