Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I have two questions of very serious nature. Do read the brief note so that you can understand nature of these two questions.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Well known scholar Salih Al Fawzan once said that watching with love and greatly desiring porn can be classified as shirk of desire, or something like minor shirk. Does it mean that,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q1) A person can have desires with which he is tested with that are un-Islamic, does it mean our desires for wrong things like alcohol, music or pornography and committing these actions will come under minor shirk?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q2) I have heard minor shikr does not make muslim a kafir, does it mean if a muslim dies without repenting from minor shirk there is a chance he can still attain paradise?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are two types of shirk:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Shirk al Akbar<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Shirk al Asghar<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The first type of shirk is when a person worships or attributes divinity to other than Allah or he worships other than Allah for example praying to someone or something else. The second type of shirk it does not involve devoting worship to other than Allah rather it is the means of polytheism and is not pure worship and leads to Shirk al Akbar for example swearing by other than Allah.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    When someone commits Shirk al Akbar he exits the fold of Islam, as for Shirk al Asghar the person does not exit the fold of Islam and he is still a Muslim, and he can repent for his actions.1<\/sup> Hence desires are part of every human being as we are not sin free like the angels, however we have the choice to make a correction of our actions. The sins you have mentioned are sins which can lead to Shirk al Asghar and one can seek repentance from these sins and by the mercy of Allah attain paradise.<\/span><\/p>\n
