"<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOKCNUqbpH0&amp;t=2h59m30s"">2:59:30</a> prayers cannot be offered by non Muslims<br>لا يجوز لغير المسلم أن يصلي لا في الصف نفسه ولا وحده ، والمطلوب منه الدخول في الإسلام قبل صلاته ، ثم الطهارة ، ثم باقي الشروط<br>Shaykh Salih Al Munajiid",(reply>), @vajat Khan I am not defending any individual my friend, i am just stating the fact that even the smallest gestures can lead to Hidaya, if a person wanted to join for prayer or understand quran with a pure intent and respect we should welcome them for Allah may guide their hearts to the light. <br>Hopefully you understand my intentions as well for i mean no harm, and السلام عليكم.,(reply>), @Amjed Belgacem You do know Omar Sulaiman is Athari Hanbali so why would he follow Dar Al Fatwah that's like quoting Al Azhar to Salafis or Daryl Uloom Deoband to Jafaris,(reply>), @vajat Khan Well," buddy the shaykh you are speaking about is talking about the disbelievers who are inside doing it out of mockery and praying alone. <br>proof of it is him quoting Sheikh ibn outhaimin where he said :  <br>فإن صلَّى فمسلمٌ حُكْماً، أي: إذا صلَّى الكافر فإننا نحكم بإسلامه، ولكنَّه مسلم حُكْماً لا حقيقة؛ حتى وإن لم يَنْوِ الإسلامَ بما فعله.<br>وفائدتُه: أنَّنا إذا حكمنا بإسلامه ، طالبناه بلوازم الإسلام؛ فيَرثُ أقاربَه المسلمين ، ويرثونَه.<br>وإن قال: فعلتُه استهزاءً : فنعتبره مرتدًّا.<br>never the less Dar Al fatwa clearly stated that if it is for paying respect then it is acceptable maybe it would be a reason for converting. <br>and lastly i would like to end this comment with a verse from the Quran which is surah Al-Qasas 56 : "You surely cannot guide whoever you like ˹O Prophet˺", but it is Allah Who guides whoever He wills, and He knows best who are ˹fit to be˺ guided.",(reply>), @Syed Obaid Idk if you've been living under a rock but Imam Omar Sulaiman allegiance with the LBGT is well known infact he is notorious for having those ties,(reply>), @vajat Khan bro if he sided with the LGBT he wouldn't be here. For the people who want to be known as preacher just to show off will get the worst punishment. Don't make islam so hard bro sometimes you really need to step back and prove with actions rather that harsh words. He is not a Muslim and may Allah guide him as well, may he felt what he did or it might be the start of his Islamic journey. Allah knows better.
