What is the ruling on the preachers of discord who insult scholars and the Divine Being, call for liberation, and do not listen to advice, and how do we refute them from the Qur’an and Sunnah, and is it permissible to supplicate against them?

The call for liberation from the Qur’an and contradicts the reality of Islam, as there is no absolute obedience in Islam to anyone other than Allah and His Messenger. Freedom in Islam is regulated by sound controls, and it is compatible with servitude to Allah. Insulting the Divine Essence is an act of disbelief (kufr), and it is permissible to supplicate against a disbeliever. As for someone who has not reached the stage of disbelief, it is legislated to supplicate for their guidance, not for an increase in their immorality.
