Question

Why does Islam give permission to kill a Muslim after becoming a kafir?

Answer

When Allah Ta`ala had passed legislation we were not around nor did he discuss these matters with us.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
