ANSWER:

Yes, it’s not allowed to backbite the non muslims as well.

Sheikh, I’m from Russia. Have to contact with the kuffār permanently. My kāfir relatives and acquaintances often complain to me about other kuffār. Like “B. is so bad. You know what he did?” etc.. This has no sense cause it’s not of my business, and I can’t help them. Is backbiting forbidden only regarding Muslims or is it forbidden regarding the kuffār as well?
