The Ruling on Imitating the People of the Book

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Sa'id Muhammad, a university student, says: I ask the Honorable Shaykh, is the default ruling regarding imitating the People of the Book obligatory or recommended?

Answer:
The default is obligatory; the default is obligatory. Whoever imitates a people is one of them. This is evidence for the prohibition of imitating the disbelievers and the obligation of refraining from imitating them. Yes.
