If one makes fun out of my religion, how shall I retaliate?
Question
A few days ago someone made fun of my religion. I stood quiet, if this happens next time, should I retaliate in a physical manner?
Answer
Almighty Allah Ta'ala says, 'When the ignorant speak to you, say, 'Salaam' (avoid them with wisdom).'
The purpose of people making a fun is to aggravate you. by you retaliating, you will be giving in to their purpose.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
