The questioner : May Allah reward you. ... The point is, does he intend disbelief, or is the point that he intends the act?

The Shaykh : No, he intends the act or the statement, but if he is ignorant, it remains as he intended the contradiction.

The questioner : ... If someone curses, he curses Allah to humiliate the one he is speaking with.

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : He curses Allah to humiliate his listener.

The Shaykh : To humiliate the person he is addressing?
