Quote:They even eat the sheep that was given to them by the Jewish woman as a gift.While on his death bed did the Prophet sws not call Umar ra and order that the Jews and Christians be expelled from the Penninsula?
Why do you think that was?
Shaykh Ahmad ibn 'Ateeq, rahimahullaah, said:
"There isn't in the Book of Allaah the Exalted - after the issue concerning the obligation of tawheed and the forbiddance of its opposite - any issue which has as so many proofs, nor so clearly explained, than the issue of walaa' and baraa'."
As regards walaa' (allegiance), it is manifesting sincere love and help for Allaah, and for His Prophets, and for the Believers.
<b>Whereas baraa' (enmity) is manifesting enmity and dissociation from falsehood and its people</b> . And these matters are actually from the most fundamental issues of faith (eemaan).
Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah said:
"As for praise and censure, love and hate, allegiance and enmity - these are things for which Allaah sent down His proof; and His proof is His Book. So whosoever is a Believer (mu'min), then it is obligatory to show allegiance to him; whatever group he is from.<b>But whosoever is an unbeliever (kaafir), then it is obligatory to show enmity to him; whatever group he is from</b> ... Whoever has in him both faith and wickedness; he is given allegiance in proportion to his faith, and shown enmity to in proportion to his wickedness. He is not expelled from [the fold] of faith in totality merely because of committing sins and acts of disobedience; as is the view of the Khawaarij and the Mu'tazilah."
