The Ruling on Expelling the Rafidah from Mosques
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Your Eminence! In the Eastern Region, the Rafidah are numerous. Some of them enter a mosque and pray. Should we rebuke them and expel them from the mosque, especially in industrial areas, where the mosque is crowded during the midday prayer because they work in the same place as the Rafidah?
The Shaykh : I do not think you should expel them from the mosque. Rather, I think you should allow them to use the mosque to pray. However, it is obligatory for you to advise them and not to despair of Allah’s guidance for them; for Allah (Mighty and Majestic) is capable of all things. It has been reported to me that—praise be to Allah—some of them have begun to free themselves from the bondage of their school of jurisprudence and join the school of the people of the Sunnah and the community.
