Eternal Abode in the Fire for One Who Intentionally Kills a Believer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh,[Al-Baqarah 2:216] because it was burdensome for them, so they found it heavy due to its difficulty and danger, and this did not necessitate their apostasy (may Allah be pleased with them). Honorable Shaykh, what is the stronger opinion among the scholars if a believer intentionally kills another believer and dies in that state, whether he repented or not? Will he abide eternally in the Fire or not? This is because some students of knowledge mix up the matter in this regard?
Answer:
By the consensus of the Muslims, and praise be to Allah, that no one abides eternally in the Fire except the disbeliever. As for the believer, he does not abide eternally in the Fire. This is by the consensus of the Muslims, as stated by Ibn Abbas and others: no one abides eternally in the Fire except the disbeliever. Yes.
Honorable Shaykh,
Fighting has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you
