\n\tQuestion<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tUsing vulgar things in the process of thinking. Because an individual may denounce Christianity by thinking within himself that if God had a son that would imply that God has a genital organ with shape, hair, and appearance like that of human beings and he may bring to his mind the exact image of a human genital organ in the context that God would have that if he had a son. Or he may recall the exact voice, words, and sound intonation of an individual that has insulted God with the ** word in the context of thinking how evil the people of our times are. Please clarify if this manner of thinking is kufr, major, minor, or not sinful at all?<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Prophet (SAW) has said in a Hadith Qudsi<\/em>, “Allah SWT has overlooked for my ummah<\/em> whatever their nafs<\/em> speaks to them as long as they do not talk or act upon it, and whoever strives to commit a sin then fails, it is as if he has committed it.”[1]<\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tBased on this Hadith<\/em> your questions can be answered:-<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t1. Any evil thoughts which appear or remain on a person’s mind unintentionally is forgiven.[2]<\/sup><\/sup><\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t2. If one imagines committing a sin with the intention of doing it, but does not do it (for Allah SWT), they will be rewarded.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t3. Intentionally imagining such things in such a scenario is a sin, even though one may not believe in them. It is not kufr <\/em>but it is feared that it may lead to it as it undermines the greatness of Allah SWT.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIf you do face such issues, it will be advisable for you to ward off these thoughts by constantly saying the ta’awudh<\/em> (A’udubillahimin al-shaytaan al-rajim<\/em>) and by keeping yourself busy in other affairs. You will not be held accountable for these unintentional thoughts. <\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
