Insulting a Fellow Muslim
Question: 12030
What should be done with a person who calls a Muslim a dog, pig, or other offensive word? Is it a sin?
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
It is a sin and he should be punished (ta’zeer – punishment to be specified by the qadhu/Muslim judge). He also has to repent.
And Allah knows best.
