What is the ruling of the Ulama-e-Ahle Sunnat in the issue of Yazeed?



Question: What is the ruling of the Ulama-e-Ahle Sunnat in the issue of yazeed? According to the command of Allah and His Rasool (Sall Allaho Alaihi wa Sallam) will yazeed be forgiven or not?

The Answer: Regarding the issue of yazeed paleed, there are three statements of the Ulama-e-Ahle Sunnat: Imam Ahmed and other learned elders etc. regard him as a kaafir and based on that, he will never be forgiven. Imam Ghazzali etc. regard him as Muslim, thus based on this, no matter how much punishment is inflicted on him, he will be forgiven. As for our Imam, in this issue he has remained silent and did not say that he is a Muslim or kaafir, thus here we too will remain silent.
