Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... and in one narration it is said:
The disbeliever. الكافر
and in another narration:
The one who doubts المرتاب
.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : There is doubt in it, and he says "the disbeliever or the one who doubts." This is how it is in the two Sahihs: "the disbeliever or the one who doubts." But when we hear it said, "I heard people saying something, so I said it," we know that this refers to the one who doubts, because the disbeliever does not speak as people do; he is originally a denier and a rejecter. Yes, Khalid.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, is it not ... .

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : The question of the deceased when he is asked about the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). It is said: "Who is your Prophet?" and he says: "Muhammad."

The Shaykh : What is your religion? Muhammad?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Does his saying "My Prophet is Muhammad" not indicate Allah and the religion?

The Shaykh : No, no, he must state this explicitly; he is asked about this explicitly. Yes.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : But the purpose is for him to regret; the benefit of the question is that he regrets, otherwise Allah knows his state.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : No, no, the explicit disbeliever is not among the believers, and he does not claim faith, unlike this one.
