the interfaith kufr house and its advocates and stooges - in the khaleej, hamid mir the popular pakistani journo, most western embassies in the khaleej for obvious reasons, qadianis for obvious reasons (he's a big time qadiani propagandist), liberals and reformists with inferiority complexes, and so on hamza and co didn't promote him directly as far as i know (wouldn't be least surprised if they did), but they're big time promoters of the house of kufr that recently came up in the khaleej.
yes. but we live in times when "Muslims" some even "shuyukh" "academics" and "professors" promote this guy and group hugs with him in our circles please don't call him a swine eater or worshiper of creation. it's spiritual pride and vanity, and bad adab towards a friend of Islam. The Prophet 3alaihis salam said that he would advocate the case of a dhimmi unfairly harmed in a Muslim governance. What if he became a Muslim and a wali tomorrow? You'd be guilty of insulting someone who's written down as a wali in Allah's Eternal Knowledge! (modernist, liberal, Hanson line of thought)
so it is obvious, what does a swine eater have to do with islam? what next? his views on permissibility of pork and wine in islam? nothing to see. move on.
he's a catholic ratbag who claims to love all things Islam & Muslim, whom many liberal, reformist, and interfaith 'Muslims' are close friends with and in awe of he routinely throws curve balls like this (OP tweet) at his "Muslim" friends and admirers, and then they're left to do damage control for him, the same way devbandis do for their elders People are surprised when they read my words about Islam.How can I, as a Catholic American, have such love for a religion that is not my own?For me, however, it is not problematic. In fact, it feels quite rational, even natural.Abrahamic faiths worship the same God.— Dr. Craig Considine (@CraigCons) March 6, 2023

who is this fellow? if he is not a muslim, then his opinion is of no value. let him first become a muslim - and learn what makes one a muslim, before tweeting on why qadianis are (according to him) not kafir.
