Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is there a difference between the Khawarij and the rebels?

Answer:
Yes, the rebels do not declare Muslims to be disbelievers; rather, they rebel under the pretext of enjoining good and forbidding evil, and they do not declare them disbelievers. As for the Khawarij, they do declare Muslims to be disbelievers.
