Nawaqid al Islaam - The Third Nullifier


Bismillah

Nawaqid al Islam (The Nullifiers of Islam) by Muhammad ibn Abdil Wahhab
Explanation by Aboo Thaabit

The Third Nullifier

Third: Whoever does not hold the polytheists to be disbelievers, or has doubts about their disbelief or considers their ways and beliefs to be correct, has committed disbelief.
This is a very important point as it very prevalent in this day and age, especially in the west. There are certain people that call to unifying faiths. The evidence they use is the following:


Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans [before Prophet Muhammad] - those [among them] who believed in Allah and the Last Day and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve. (Baqarah:62)
This is wrong! This verse doesn’t show that these people will enter Jannah! It is talking about those who believed in their Prophet, at that time. BUT now, we have to follow our Prophet.

The evidence for this is the hadith of our Prophet, sallalahu alayhi wa sallam who said:
“By the One in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, there is no-one of this Ummah, Jew or Christian, who hears of me then dies without believing in that with which I have been sent, but he will be one of the people of Hell." (Muslim, 153)

This call that these people try and convince people of is a false call and it is not from Islam.
Islam is to submit to His will through tawheed and following the sunnah of the Prophet.

If a person dies a kaafir, are we allowed to say that they will end up in the Hell fire?
We say, we only judge upon the apparent. If Allah wants to forgive them, that is up to Him. If we see him die in a state of kufr we say that whoever dies in a state of kufr will enter the Hell Fire and Allah knows best.

With this, we end the third nullifier. All good is from Allah and any mistakes are from myself
