[The intended meaning of the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: (My Ummah)]
It is reported in a hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: There will certainly be among my Ummah people who will be such and such,Is the intent of his saying: Does "my Ummah" refer to both the Muslim and the disbeliever, or only the Muslim?
The hadith is general in this regard, but the predominant view is that it refers to the believers. However, this is not evidence for the permissibility of the thing that occurs; rather, it may be a warning against it.Such as his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): (There will certainly be people from my Ummah who will consider lawful what is forbidden, silk, intoxicants, and musical instruments), he did not say this as a statement of fact,But he said it as a warning, meaning: So beware of this,And his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): (You will follow the ways of those who came before you, hand over hand, span by span, and cubit by cubit, until if they entered the hole of a lizard, you would enter it too,They said: The Jews and the Christians?He said: So he) informed that among his Ummah there are those who will follow the Jews and the Christians, but he did not say that as a statement of fact, but rather as a warning.
