Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the term Khawarij applied only to those who rebel against the rulers? Or to those who combine the corrupt beliefs of the Khawarij, such as denying intercession, declaring a major sinner a disbeliever, and rebelling against the rulers? And what is applied to one who holds only some of their beliefs?
Answer:
One who holds some of their beliefs is like them, and if he holds all of their beliefs, that is more severe. Yes.
