Advice for one who calls people to slaughter for other than Allah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. The questioner from South Sinai says: There was a very kind woman near us, but, glory be to Allah who changes conditions, this woman changed and began to claim that she was a close friend of Allah. People started coming to her from all over, and she usually ordered them to slaughter animals while visiting the dead. Is there any advice for this woman?
Answer:
Yes, she must fear Allah Mighty and Majestic and abandon these acts of shirk (associating partners with Allah) and kufr (disbelief), because they take her out of the religion of Islam. If she dies in this state, she will be among the people of the Fire, may Allah protect us from that. She should repent to Allah Mighty and Majestic and hasten to repent so that she dies upon tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and Islam, and thus be among the people of Paradise, if Allah wills. But if she dies upon these matters, namely slaughtering for other than Allah, calling for aid from the dead, and the like, she will be a mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah). And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[Al-Ma'idah 5:72].
And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes.

And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:
Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers.
إِنَّهُ مَن يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَأْوَاهُ النَّارُ وَمَا لِلظَّالِمِينَ مِنْ أَنصَارٍAnd the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
(peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever dies while not associating anything with Allah will enter Paradise, and whoever dies while associating something with Allah will enter the Fire.
صلى الله عليه وسلم من مات وهو لا يشرك بالله شيئا دخل الجنة، ومن مات وهو يشرك بالله شيئا دخل النار.
