Whoever Calls The Kuffar “Good People” Isn't A Muslim

 

There exists a widespread statement which destroys the Iman in Allah in one's heart completely. Lots of people – who call themselves Muslims – aren't really mindful of this. But nevertheless it is a grave statement. It is about the assertion of some that the Kuffar would be “good people”. Or, that a specific Kafir would be a “good person” just because he doesn't commit as much bad deeds as others do. Whoever calls the Kuffar “good people” isn't a Muslim. The reason for this is that by this statement he rejects that Kufr and Shirk are the worst things ever. Even if he knows in his heart that it is different, he has already uttered it so he isn't one of the Muslims. Allahu ta’ala said,

 

وَلَقَدْ قَالُوا كَلِمَةَ الْكُفْرِ وَكَفَرُوا بَعْدَ إِسْلَامِهِمْ

 

And they have already uttered the word of Kufr, and they committed Kufr after their Islam. (at-Taubah: 74)

 

This Ayah proves that one leaves al-Islam if he utters clear Kufr - even if one doesn't mean what he said. If someone utters it intentional without making a slip of the tongue he leaves al-Islam because of that. And the people surely can't choose for themselves what counts as clear Kufr in Islam. There are statements which are considered by them as ambiguous. But the desires of the people do not invalidate the laws of Islam. Allahu ta’ala said,

 

وَلَوِ اتَّبَعَ الْحَقُّ أَهْوَاءَهُمْ لَفَسَدَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالْأَرْضُ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ (المؤمنون:71)

 

And if the truth would have followed their desires the heavens, the earth, and who is in them would have been corrupted. (al-Mu'minun: 71)

 

It is written in ad-Durar us-Saniyyah (13/83),

 

وكثير منها يقع فيها الإنسان، ولا يدري أنه كفر، بل يظنه خفيفا؛ ومرادنا الإنسان الذي يدعي معرفة التوحيد، والبراءة من الشرك

 

There is much of that which the human being does, while he doesn't know that it is Kufr. Rather he deems it to be light. And by “the human being” we mean the one who claims to know at-Tawhid, and (who claims) to disassociate himself from ash-Shirk.

 

There are many who think that they have fully understood at-Tawhid. So they assume to know what it means to worship Allah Alone, and none else. But...did they really already understand everything correctly? Everybody who has recognized the Din of Allah also knows that the Kuffar aren't good people. And how could that be? They worship others besides Allah, deny the truth, or just turn away. Allahu ta’ala said,

 

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَالْمُشْرِكِينَ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أُولَئِكَ هُمْ شَرُّ الْبَرِيَّةِ (6) (البينة)

 

Verily, those who commit Kufr from (among) the people of the Scripture and the Mushrikin are in the fire of Jahannam. These are the worst of creatures. (al-Bayyinah: 6)

 

Ibnu Hazm said in al-Fisal fil-Milal wal-Ahwa' wan-Nihal (2/35),

 

ولا خير في كافر

 

And there is no good in a Kafir.

 

Muhammad Ibnu ’Abdil-Wahhab said in Nawaqid al-Islam,

 

الثالث : من لم يكفر المشركين أو شك في كفرهم أو صحح مذهبهم كفر

 

The third [point which makes one a Kafir]: Whoever doesn't make Takfir on the Mushrikin, or doubts their Kufr, or declares their way to be correct has committed Kufr.

 

Whoever claims that the Kuffar are good people declares by this statement their way to be correct - even if he isn't serious. Every Muslim stands for al-Islam, just as every Kafir stands for al-Kufr. The one who follows a Din that is completely false and wicked never can be a good person as long as he follows it. But whoever after all describes him as good negates by his statement that his Din is false. It isn't possible to combine these two opposites, just as water and fire don't occur together.

Those who are not "Good people" are bad people.

Some muslims are bad people?

^^ johnny den här personen är för radikal, han vet inte ens vad Islam är. Våran profet Muhammad SAW brukade läsa du'a för de kristna och de som dyrkade andra gudar när dem gjorde något bra för profeten SAW. Det är personer som Yaa tahay som skämmer ut Islam och gör så att muslimer blir stämplade som terrorister och radikala. Jag tror att det är därför du själv är ateist då du själv har fått en felaktig bild av vad islam verkligen är. Islam står för fred och respekt, islam är ett livsmönster då man ska följa profetens SAW fotspår och det är inte vad dessa salafister/wahabister gör utan de har en radikal faktiskt avskyvärd människosyn.
