(205) Chapter: Someone says calls his brother an unbeliever
22
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، أَنَّ نَافِعًا حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: إِذَا قَالَ لِلْآخَرِ: كَافِرٌ، فَقَدْ كَفَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا، إِنْ كَانَ الَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ كَافِرًا فَقَدْ صَدَقَ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُ فَقَدْ بَاءَ الَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ بِالْكُفْرِ.


'Abdullah ibn 'Umar reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allahbless him and grant him peace, said, "When someone says to another, 'Unbeliever!'then one of them is an unbeliever. If the one to whom he says it is anunbeliever, he has spoke the truth. If that is not the case, then the onewho said it has brought down disbelief on himself."
