But what if that person knows what is said in the Qur'an, believes in the Qur'an but also gives the same priority to other books other then the Quran? what if the person knows what the Qur'an says, but believes in stuff which contradicts what they learn in the Qur'an and Sunnah? Do we say they are sinning, or do people have the right to call them Disbelievers? | Allah knows best, maybe they have ignorant reasons.
For example, they might not understand it properly. This would come down to whether ignorance is an escuse.
And if they know, but they keep doing it, then it would depend on what they are doing. For example, someone who knows they have to fast, but does not, then I do not think he is a kafir. But if he denies the obligatory of fasting then I think he would be.
So if your saying brother, that the person says Allah is not one, then thats kufr, but I dont know if he is a kafir, but then again that is something that goes against the normal intelect too, i.e. fitrah so ignorance aint an escuse. Hmmm.
This is something really tricky to go into.
As for your question, I will leave it am gettingworried I'll say something wrong.
