Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is the one who commits minor shirk included in the general meaning of the statement of Allah the Exalted:
Indeed, Allah does not forgive associationإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَغْفِرُ أَن يُشْرَكَ
[An-Nisa 4:48]
?

Answer:
That is the apparent ruling, but he will not remain in the Fire eternally like the one who commits major shirk. Yes.
