DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 23rd day of Jumaad-athaani 1446AH, Tuesday. 24th Dec. 2024). MINOR FORM OF KUFUR. BismilLah. 

These types of disbelief are minor ones. They do not take a person out of the fold of Islam but only show weakness in faith in ALLAH, which MUST be avoided at all cost. The person may be forgiven by ALLAH or punished if you do not seek forgiveness before death. Among them are:

Ingratitude

This is not being grateful towards a blessing that one has been given and ascribing the blessing to someone else either by statement or actions. ALLAH says:

وَإِذْ تَأَذَّنَ رَبُّكُمْ لَئِن شَكَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ وَلَئِن كَفَرْتُمْ إِنَّ عَذَابِي لَشَدِيدٌ

[Quran 14:7]

And [remember] when your Lord proclaimed, ‘If you are grateful, I will surely increase you [in favour]; but if you deny, indeed, My punishment is severe.’ “ AstaqfirulLah. 

And this blessing, the soul testifies that it is from ALLAH, but the body parts deny it. ALLAH says:

يَعْرِفُونَ نِعْمَتَ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ يُنكِرُونَهَا وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ

[Quran 16:83]

They recognize the favour of ALLAH; then, they deny it. And most of them are disbelievers. ALLAHU AKBAR. 

Fighting a believer;

The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam made us know that fighting with a believer is minor kufr as it is an act of disobedience to ALLAH. He said in the hadith:

Narrated Ibn Mas’ud: that the Messenger of ALLAH (sallallahualaihiwasallam) said: “Verbally abusing a Muslim is disobedience and fighting him is disbelief.” Some scholars even say that fighting another believer is a major sin as it leads to disbelief  if you die in such fighting AstaqfirulLah. 

May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences that may lead us into kufur. Aameen.
