First of all,

00:00:01 --> 00:00:07

the issue of making takfir or declaring Shia Muslims as non

00:00:07 --> 00:00:08

Muslim.

00:00:09 --> 00:00:13

I'll quote from someone who is often used by Muslims who may lean

00:00:13 --> 00:00:20

more to a conservative opinion, Imam Ibn Taymiyyah, who and I'll

00:00:20 --> 00:00:25

mention two places, one in majma al fatawi And his answer to a Suki

00:00:25 --> 00:00:31

about the Talaq that was performed by a Shia.

00:00:33 --> 00:00:38

The second in Minhaj sunnah. And I believe in the majma afatawa, it's

00:00:38 --> 00:00:39

it's the Second Volume,

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

page number, 659 to 662

00:00:44 --> 00:00:45

I believe

00:00:46 --> 00:00:50

as well in Minhaj a sunnah. I don't remember the actual page

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

number, forgive me,

00:00:52 --> 00:00:57

but I'm I'm quoting him because he's often used by people to

00:00:59 --> 00:01:05

to declare even Sunnis as out of Islam. And I think it's a failure

00:01:05 --> 00:01:06

for them to understand

00:01:07 --> 00:01:10

the writings of Imam Ibn Taymiyyah, and then to understand,

00:01:10 --> 00:01:14

for example, that much more Fatah we is not something that is

00:01:14 --> 00:01:18

considered reliable because of how it was collected. He did not write

00:01:18 --> 00:01:23

much. Mafataiw, someone else wrote it group of people. But that's

00:01:23 --> 00:01:26

another discussion, a longer discussion. But for example, in

00:01:26 --> 00:01:32

minhaji Sunna and nabawiya, he mentions that there are not

00:01:32 --> 00:01:35

disbelievers, even though we have fundamental differences with them,

00:01:36 --> 00:01:42

and that that amongst them are a large majority right the masses,

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

Alhamdulillah,

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

are Muslims?
