Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 235/225=J)

Any person believing imams as superior than prophets is having a belief of kufr (infidelity). For details see: Shia Sunni Ikhtelaaf by Mufti Yusuf Ludhianwi.

Q. Mufti Sahab, Assalam Alekum First of all sorry for asking too many Question within a week. Mufti Sahab I want to ask you that in tablighi Jamaat everybody is telling that 'Jo Raee ke dane ke baraabar bhi Imaan leke jayega usko Allah paak Duniya se 10 guni badi jannat dega.'
