Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a question similar to that one. He says: Did the man who offered a sacrifice to the idol have a way out by slaughtering, but without believing in drawing near?
Answer:
Even if he had a way out, he has no right to slaughter for other than Allah. Look at the one who refused to slaughter and was killed; he had no way out. He was patient in upholding the oneness of Allah (tawhid) until he was killed. Major shirk (associating partners with Allah) is not an excuse for a person. Do not associate partners with Allah, even if you are killed or burned, as mentioned in the hadith.
