The answer

The legal ruling concerning the fate of the children of Christians, Jews, and other disbelieving nations, as well as those to whom the Islamic call has not reached, has been detailed in previous fatwas. As for someone who goes astray due to another person's call to them, they will be punished for their misguidance. The punishment for the one who led them astray will be multiplied, based on the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: "And whoever calls to misguidance will bear a sin equivalent to the sins of those who follow him," and based on the Almighty's saying: "And they will surely carry their own burdens and burdens along with their own burdens."
