Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the disbelief here (in the hadith
he who detested his father committed infidelityفمَن رَغِبَ عن أَبِيهِ فَهو كُفْرٌ
Sahih Muslim 62
)?

Answer:
It is minor shirk (associating partners with Allah), except for one who considers it permissible.
Q: In this chapter and in other chapters: If the term "disbelief" is used generally, and the intended meaning is minor disbelief, is it greater than major sins?
The Shaykh: Yes, according to the scholars, minor shirk and minor disbelief are greater than major sins. We ask Allah for well-being. The category of disbelief is greater than the category of sins.
