What does it mean that there’s no compulsion in religion? Shaykh Abdul-Rahim Reasat discusses the different scholarly positions on compulsion (ikrah).  Allah has made the truth clear from falsehood. Those who choose belief over disbelief grasp onto the most trustworthy hand-hold.  In the last verse in this podcast, Shaykh Abdul-Rahim elaborates on what Allah being a wali (protecting ally) of the believers entails. The fate of those who choose misguidance over guidance is also discussed.
