The Ruling on Saying (The Greed of the Prophet ﷺ Who Permitted the Meat of Cows)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah be with you, Your Eminence, the father. The questioner says: I heard a person who dislikes the cow and its meat, saying, "The greed of the Messenger who permitted it." What is the ruling on this statement? And how should I deal with him?
Answer:
This is dangerous speech, may Allah protect us from it. This is dangerous speech that implies disbelief, but perhaps this man is ignorant. In that case, he is excused due to ignorance. However, if he is deliberate in this statement, then it is apostasy. Apostasy from Islam. Some people say, "The greed of the Messenger who made the cow one of the seven sacrificial animals. One of the seven sacrificial animals." Meaning, they disparage the cow. They object to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). If this is due to ignorance, it is very serious. And if it is deliberate, it is disbelief and apostasy from the religion of Islam. Yes.
