After recent events in Orlando , an incident from the life of the great Egyptian scholar,  Shaykh Muhammad Mitawally al- Sha'rawy comes to mind.

Sheikh al-Sharawy said:

I once spoke with a young man who has a mind that was quite extreme, I asked him:

"Blowing up a nightclub or immoral place with people inside, is it halal or haram?"

Young Man:

"Of course halal and permissible to kill them."

Shaykh Sha'rawi:

"If you kill them while they are disobeying God what will happen to them or where will they go?"

Young Man:

"Of course they will go to hell."

Shaykh Sha'rawi:

"Where does the devil want to take them?"

Young Man:

"Of course to hell, because it is the goal of the devil"

Shaykh Sha'rawi:

"Then you and the devil cooperate in a goal, to take humans to the hellfire."

Then Shaykh also reminded him of the Hadith of the Prophet.

When a corpse of an individual had past before him he stood up and cried, and the Sahaba around him asked

"What makes you weep O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "Another soul has escaped from me and go to hell!"

Shaykh:

"Can you see the difference between you and the Prophet (may peace and blessings be upon him)? The want of guidance for all mankind and save them from hell, you are on one side and He(may peace and blessings be upon him) was of the other!"

May God bless Shaykh Sha'rawi.
