Question:
We say, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to curse the Jews and Christians in general based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
May Allah curse the Jews and Christiansلعنة الله على اليهود والنصارى
Sunan an-Nasa'i 703Sahih (Darussalam)
?

Answer:
They are cursed for their actions; they are cursed for their actions. They took the curse of Allah upon the Jews and Christians as a reference to the cause, so they are cursed and this is tied to the cause they committed. As for cursing them absolutely, no, they are not cursed except for what they did. Yes.
