Hakikat Kitabevi Publications No: 10 answer to an enemy of islam

Radd al-muhtâr, wrote, “Non-Muslim countrymen living in Dâr al-
Islâm are called 
Zimmîs. It is not permissible to violate the
property, lives or chastity of zimmîs or of those disbelievers who
come to the country for trade or as tourists. They possess the same
freedom given to Muslims. The case is not so with mulhids. Those
mulhids who deceive Muslims are asked to repent. If they refuse,

all of them are killed with the command of the head of the State.
If they repent, their repentance is accepted. Those holders of bid’a
whose belief does not cause disbelief are given advice. If they
refuse and do not repent, they are punished with ta’zîr
[1]
by the
State. If it is considered necessary, they are forced to repent by
imprisonment or flogging. If their leader who endeavours to
deceive Muslims, does not repent after imprisonment and flogging,
it is permissible for the State to have him killed. Though one who
causes Muslims to part from the madhhab of Ahl as-Sunna and to
become lâ-madhhabî heretics and thus tries to spread bid’as does
not become a disbeliever, it is permissible for the head of the State
to have him killed in order to protect the people from losing their
peace and unity.

CONCLUSION
As it is understood from the beginning of his book to the end,
Rashîd Ridâ does not posses any firm faith or reasonable opinion.
He looks for grounds for traducing the Ahl as-Sunna and the four
madhhabs and beats about the bush. By using his masonic master’s
cunning policy and putting in arbitrary examples by translating
from books written in Arabic, his mother tongue, he introduces
himself as a religious scholar. Lest our young men of religious
profession and the pure, credulous Muslims should believe in the
lies and slanders of this cunning enemy of the Ahl as-Sunna, we
have written this humble refutation.
In summary, the purpose of this book,
