The Difference Between the People of Kalam and the Secularists

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, are the people of kalam (speculative theology) mentioned by the author (may Allah have mercy on him) the same as those called secularists in our time?

Answer:
No, secularists are not that; these are zindiqs (heretics) who have no religion. As for the scholars of kalam, they have a religion, but there is mixing in their creed. They are not people of religion; they are people of a specific sect. Yes, they are different from secularists, for the secularists have no religion, may Allah protect us from that. Yes.
