it is kufr to believe so as it rejects an explicit aayat of the qur'an. surah nisa'a 4:157. the aayat clearly negates that sayyiduna yisa alayhi's salam was either killed or crucified (regardless of the degree). alayhi's salatu wa's salam. ---- note: the sentence was incorrect with a double negative. it is now updated for clarity.
Had another question regarding this. I've seen that some who call themselves Muslims say that the crucifixion mentioned in the Qur'ān al-Karīm is the type that leads to death. These people believe that a crucifixion happened but not the type that lead to death, rather, the raising happened after being put on the cross alive. Is there any discussion regarding the interpretation of the word crucifixion in our literature and what is the ruling on those that espouse this belief?
Why is it necessary for the ulema to declare kafir someone who is a kafir? Because there are many Islamic rulings what are related to Muslims alone like the permission to lead the prayer and like marriage both in it being contracted and in it remaining contracted and like the laws related to inheritance. Further understand that the ulema do not make kafir nor can they make kafir someone who is not a kafir, the persons themselves have within them disbelief and it is the ulema who make apparent the ruling of that disbelief. The meaning therefore of takfeer is not making someone a kafir rather making apparent someone to be a kafir. Rejecting the return of Sayyiduna Isa upon Him be peace and blessings is disbelief and they who reject it have disbelieved. #haroonsultan
I feel so sorry for kids who grew up in the West and looked up to clowns like these as scholars. Some of his fanboys say that he is the best scholar of Fiqh and Hadith in this era. It is a sign of Qiyamah honestly.
Abu Layth doesn’t consider Ijma’ as a legal source in Islam. He kept saying Allah and His Messenger only. Any works to prove Ijma’ is a legal source? Shaykh Asrar refutes this argument simply by asking how he established the Khilafat e Rashida of Sayyidina Abu Bakr and Sayyidina Ali radiyAllah anhuma
Shaykh asrar says the Hadith regarding Nuzool of Prophet Isa alaihissalam are Mutawatir Ma’nawi. What does this mean? (the ma’nawi part) Can we prove the Hadith are Mutawatir Ma’nawi? Is rejection of Mutawatir Ma’nawi: Kufr, Misguidance or Sinful (but not kufr/misguidance)?
that is two beliefs in one statement, and not one. 1) has sayyiduna yisa alayhi's salam passed away and tasted that moment of death promised for everyone in the creation? 2) will sayyiduna yisa alayhi's salam return to earth during final times? the first is against jumhur opinion, but still some sunni scholars held it. the second si against ahl as-sunnah and whoever rejects this is a mubtadiy Dall and out of ahl al-sunnah. Allah ta'ala knows best.
quick read of hujjatu'l islam's sarim al-rabbani describes the following three masayil: 1. hazrat yisa alayhi's salam was neither killed, nor crucified. this belief is from daruriyat din. anyone who believes to the contrary is a kafir. 2. hazrat yisa alayhi's salam will descend in final days. this belief is from daruriyat of ahl al-sunnah. anyone who disbelieves this is a heretic. 3. is hazrat yisa alayhi's salam alive? this is two pronged. we ahl al-sunnah believe that all prophets are alive vide the sahih hadith: 'anbiya are alive in their graves'. so there is no doubt that he is alive. the second implication of the question is whether the promise of death - the threshold that every living being should pass through; has hazrat yisa alayhi's salam crossed that threshold and tasted the promised death? the madh'hab of jumhur of ulama is that he has not passed through that promised moment of death; while one or two scholars said otherwise. ================ this risalah is extracted from fatawa hamidiyyah. download from here.

It is 2 different things. Being Alive (not having tasted death) is differed upon. So not bid'ah if disagreed. The descent [at end of times] is agreed upon, by consensus.
yes, I agree. Abu Layth's etiquette is admirable. Will put a drunk monkey to shame. --- Actually, if someone holds Ajmal upside down by his boots and gives him a vigorous shake (which would really be an obliging gesture, given the imperative title 'shake Abu Layth'), they should not be surprised if they find the floor littered with all sorts of filth and a heap of hypocrisy but not a dime's worth of shame and less than a pittance of sense. As for knowledge, I guess a few droplets is all they will find, even if, in addition to "shaykhing" he is also passed through a lemon squeezer ... but no, let's not talk about that. Anyone wanna try that? Don't forget your air-purifying respirators ...
So having the belief that Syedna Isa passed away and won't come back is not bid'ah according to Alahazrat? And the person is still within Ahlus Sunnah? I might have misunderstood.
Yeah. In the end the donkey finally agreed to have an actual debate. It is truly a sign of Qiyamah that people like him have titles such as Mufti. He is a charlatan. His CV looks very suspicious too. Also it shows that just because someone may have studied in Syria for a couple years and claims to have ijazahs, he should not be blindly followed.
