Question:
This questioner says: We have heard from people that al-Busiri is declared a disbeliever. Is their statement correct or not?
Answer:
There is scholarly disagreement regarding declaring a specific person a disbeliever, and the correct view is that he is not declared a disbeliever, because it is not known how his life ended; perhaps he repented. However, it is said that whoever does such and such, or says such and such, that is disbelief. As for the specific individual, it is not known what his final state was. Yes.
