"لَيسَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ ادُّعِى لِغَير أَبِيهِ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُه إِلا كَفَرَ، وَمَن ادَّعَى مَا لَيسَ لَهُ فَلَيس مِنَّا، وَلْيَتَبَوَّأ مَقْعَدَه مِن النَّارِ، وَمَن دَعَا رَجُلًا بِالْكُفْرِ، أوَقَال: عَدُوَّ الله- وَلَيسَ كَذَلِكَ إِلا حَارَ عَلَيهِ، وَلا يَرْمى رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا بالْفِسْقِ، وَلا يَرْميه بالْكُفْرِ إِلا ارْتَدَّتْ عَلَيهِ، إِن لَمْ يَكن صَاحِبُه كَذَلك".
Prohibitions: considering someone else one's father, claiming someone else's property, labeling a Muslim a kāfir (disbeliever) or an enemy of Allah
heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "No person who claimed someone else as his father other than ˹his own˺ knowingly has committed nothing but kufr (infidelity). He who made a claim of a thing that does not belong to him is not from us and he should prepare his abode in Hellfire."
"And he who labeled anyone with kufr (disbelief) or called him an enemy of Allah while he is not, then it gets ˹thrown˺ back on him."
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «لَيْسَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ ادَّعَى لِغَيْرِ أَبِيهِ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُهُ إِلاَّ كَفَرَ؛ وَمَنِ ادَّعَى مَا لَيْسَ لَهُ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا وَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ؛»
«وَمَنْ دَعَا رَجُلاً بِالْكُفْرِ أَوْ قَالَ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ وَلَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ إِلاَّ حَارَ عَلَيْهِ۔»
No person who claimed knowingly anyone else as his father besides (his own) committed nothing but infidelity, and he who made a claim of anything, which (in fact) did not belong to him, is not amongst us; he should make his abode in Fire, and he who labeled anyone with unbelief or called him the enemy of Allah, and he was in fact not so, it rebounded on him. (Using translation from Muslim 61)
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَيْسَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ ادَّعَى لِغَيْرِ أَبِيهِ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا كَفَرَ وَمَنْ ادَّعَى مَا لَيْسَ لَهُ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا وَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ وَمَنْ دَعَا رَجُلًا بِالْكُفْرِ أَوْ قَالَ عَدُوُّ اللهِ وَلَيْسَ كَذَاكَ إِلَّا حَارَ عَلَيْهِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever claims to be from someone other than his father, knowing that he is not, has disbelieved. And whoever claims something that is not his, he is not from us and should take his seat in the Fire. And whoever accuses a man of disbelief or says he is an enemy of Allah, when it is not true, then he has cast upon himself a great burden or injustice. It was not as he claimed."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنِ ادُّعِيَ إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُهُ فَقَدْ كَفَرَ وَمَنِ ادَّعَى مَا لَيْسَ لَهُ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا وَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ وَمَنِ ادَّعَى رَجُلًا بِالْكُفْرِ أَوْ قَالَ عَدُوَّ اللهِ وَلَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ فَقَدْ حَارَ أَوْ جَارَ عَلَيْهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ كَذَلِكَ
