Salam Alaykum,
I am not sure whether such an issue would be as clear-cut as the original poster would want to make it seem. The reason is thatfor the opposite to be established, we would need a text from the Islamic sources telling us that Mursi is closer to Allah than Shafiq, and such a text is obviously not forthcoming, so any opinions given by Mufti Gomaa or any other 'Aalim are just that - his opinions. |

There has been a Medieval understanding of the role of State in a Muslim polity; upholding of Islamic Law.
Once that duty was discharged, any form of Tyranny was acceptable to the Doctors of Religious Science of Islam. Ayatollah Khomeini broke with that understanding and condemned Tyranny as anti-Islamic. I do not know the position of Doctors of Al Azhar on this subject. |

The real question Mufti Ali Goma should be considering is who is closer to Allah out of Mufti Ali Goma and Dr. Muhammad Morsi? In Syria the once highly respected Mufti Ramadan Bouti has lost the respect of the Syrian people by clinging to the old anti-Islam regime for whatever reason. Mufti Ali Goma should perhaps bear his own position in mind in this light too, but more importantly maybe he should consider whether it is possible to sustain his own freindship with the old power structure at the same time as maintaining his relationship with Allah. |

Salam Alaykum, I know that what Shaykh Buti and Mufti Gomaa said seem to be quite strange, but it is not up to us to anathematize them. I am sure if someone were to tread through the sayings of any given ordinary Muslim, they would find enough 'dirt' to perhaps have him Islamically executed. This is why the 'Ulama in most cases will say that 'such and such belief is disbelief' rather than specifying on 'such and such person is a disbeliever'. Specifically about this thread it is best if the Muftis and Shaykhs on board if this discussion serves any purpose. |

Can someone first provide the context of his statement? Translate the speech in full? http://www.ibnpercy.com/mufti-ali-go...res-candidate/ |

^ The reason why such a stance or statement is seen to be of great significance or great consequence is due to the individuals status or standing. In Surah az-Zumar, Allah ('azaa wa jal) says, ' Say, "Are those who know equal to those who do not know?" Only they will remember [who are] people of understanding.' |
