I want to ask a question regarding apostasy.. one of the criteria where a situation is not considered as apostasy is when u say something by the tongue but don’t mean it from the heart… keeping this point in mind can i convert to Christianity not because I think it’s the truth. I am well aware that islam is the religion of truth and I am a practicing muslim. I pray 5 times a day and read the quran daily.. and do what is required of a muslim.. but iam in a situation at the moment where I need a certain passport and if I lie that I want to convert to Christianity the chances of me getting the passport are high. This will not change how I feel about islam I will still be a practicing muslim like iam now. with this being said if I lie and convert to Christianity I know it’s a lie and thus is a sin… but does it mean i have committed apostasy? And does this thought of mine in itself is apostasy? And do I really become a christian by just saying things that would make them believe that I have converted to christianity. In no way will I speak ill of islam or Allah swt or our prophet pbuh. please reply as soon as possible thank u for ur time.

This man is ignorant and he may be in great danger as what he believes in can be an act of apostasy. Believing that Isa alaihi salam is dead contraditcs the Qur’an and brings that one out of islam. “And because of their saying (in boast), ‘We killed the Messiah ‘Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam […]

May I ask as I want to be sincere regarding this…Why do we take from Abu Haneefah, Ibn Hajr al-Bayhaqee, anawawee…they had problems in aqeedah but today’s age one makes a mistakes he’s an innovator…..do we consider these imaams to be salafee (following the salaf)?

These Imams had knowledge that far exceeded any other of our contemporary scholars. We accept their knowledge only after filtering it and purifying it from anything that tarnishes the Aqeedah! Scholars have pointed out their mistakes and warned people from it. Today’s scholars are not like them and we warn others from them because Muslims […]
