Secularism and freedom of religion

426

A: Secularism is the call of separating religion from the affairs of state and to take only the acts of worship and leave the other aspects of religion, and recognition of what is called "freedom of religion". Thus, whoever wants to be a Muslim will be Muslim, and whoever wants to leave it to embrace another religion or creed, he may do so. Secularism and other corrupted beliefs (Part No. 2; Page No. 144) are immoral and bad calls which people must avoid, reveal its falseness, explain its danger and warn people against its evil because its evil is great and its danger is tremendous. We ask Allah (Exalted be He) for sanity and safety from its evil and the evil of its advocates.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
