Is it permissible to kill a person who deliberately insults Islam, and the state has provided him with the means to do so?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Well, regarding a person who deliberately insults Islam, and the state has made all the means available to him, and he announces it openly?

The Shaykh : Stay away, stay away from the people of takfir (declaring someone a disbeliever). Stay away.

The questioner : Well, regarding, my Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Did your companion understand me or not?

The questioner : I swear to Allah, my Shaykh, I did not understand you!

The Shaykh : You did not understand?

The questioner : No, my intention, my Shaykh, is that I support the view that it is not permissible to declare him a disbeliever, but...

The Shaykh : What do you mean?

The questioner : I mean the ruling on the one who, if a person kills this man, what is his ruling in Islam?

The Shaykh : It is not permissible. There is no assassination in Islam except by the order of the Muslim ruler.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : Otherwise, cases would become chaos, and blood would be made permissible to be shed.
