General Dealings of a Muslim with a Non-Muslim in a Non-Muslim Society – Dr Zakir Naik

RMNS-3

As far as the second category is concerned the role of a Muslim in a non-Muslim society as far as relationships with a non-Muslim is concerned as far as actions and deeds with a non-Muslim is concerned it can be further divided into 3 sub categories. The first is general dealing with the non-Muslim. The second is special relations with the non-Muslims and the third is Da’wah with the non-Muslims.

As far as the first sub category is concerned regarding the general dealings of a Muslim with the non-Muslims it is the same. You have to be honest with the non-Muslim, you have to be kind to him, you have to be just with him, you have to be merciful.

As far as the general dealing is concerned in day to day life which does not directly concern harming your Eeman then how you deal with a Muslim, you have to deal the same way with a non-Muslim in general day to day dealings and there are many Muslims who say “Ah! He is a non-Muslim you know so if I cheat him it’s not a problem.” Islam does not give you permission to cheat anyone whether he is a Muslim or a non-Muslim. Islam does not give you permission to deal unjustly with a Muslim or with a non-Muslim, it’s the same. And this can be derived from 2 verses of the glorious Qur’an from Surah Mumtahinah ch. No. 60 verse no. 8 and 9 and Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala), says in the Qur’an in Surah Mumtahinah ch. No. 60 verse no. 8 that

“Allah forbids you not as far as those non-Muslims are concerned who fight you not for your faith nor drive you out of your homes from dealing with them with justice and kindness, for Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala), loves those who are just and kind.”

So here Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala), tells us that as far as the non-Muslims are concerned as long as they do not fight you for your faith, for your Eeman or do not drive you out of your home, Allah forbids you not from dealing with them with justice and kindness for Allah loves those who are just and kind.

But the next verse of the Qur’an, Allah says in Surah Mumtahinah ch. No. 60 verse no. 9

“But Allah forbids you only as far as those non-Muslims are concerned who fight you for your faith and drive you out of your homes or support those people who indulge in these activities. Allah forbids you from keeping friendship and asking for protection from these people.”

So if a non-Muslim fights you for your faith or drives you out of your home or supports those people who fight you for your faith or drive you out of your homes, Allah forbids you from going to them for friendship or for protection. So here Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala), is very clear that under normal circumstances with a non-Muslim we have to deal justly and kindly unless he fights for your faith or drives you out of your home.
