Question:
What carries the most authentic meaning regarding minor disbelief?
Answer:
No, the apparent meaning of the general statement, from the Great Reciter, is that he died a disbeliever, which is the apparent meaning of major disbelief. We ask Allah for safety, but the correct view is that it is not authentic. Even if it were authentic, it would have to be interpreted as minor disbelief; because drinking intoxicants is not major disbelief. If it were authentic like what is in the hadith, from it, He says, Exalted is He: No the fornicator is accepted, until He said: and he does not drink it while he is a believer, meaning a complete believer, so he would have a type of disbelief. Yes.
