Is it permissible to identify a disbeliever, meaning to make it clear that he is a disbeliever?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : Making it clear that he is a disbeliever and warning against his path, this is obligatory. The discussion is about cursing him, cursing him.

The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : The intention behind this is warning, because this is not after the amputation; this is before the amputation. The Messenger spoke of this before the amputation, so the intention is warning, meaning it is as if he said: How ugly is his action.

The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : No, if he said, "I curse the thief, may Allah curse the thief," that is a supplication that he be cursed, because he may also steal and his hand may not be cut off; perhaps the conditions are not met, or perhaps he denies it.
