The comment of some sinners, “I am free to do what I want”
Question: 41638
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
“This is wrong. We say: You are not free to disobey Allaah, rather if you disobey your Lord you can no longer call yourself a slave of Allaah because you have become enslaved to the Shaytaan and to whims and desires.”
