Is it permissible to say: The homeland is equivalent to or resembles the word: Allah?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the question is about the slogan "Allah.. The Homeland," it is feared to be minor in utterance, due to associating the homeland with Allah Almighty. If the intention is to equate the homeland with Allah Almighty, then this is taking rivals alongside Allah, which is a clear misguidance. It may fall into major shirk if the equality is in love, obedience, or veneration.
