Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: I read novels in English solely for the purpose of acquiring the language, but they contain some words that undermine the creed. What is the ruling on reading such novels?

Answer:
Yes, point them out, respond to them, and write in the margin: do not read them, pass over them, and leave them. Yes.
