What is the ruling on the saying: "Embrace humanity, then embrace whatever religions you wish"?
This statement is reprehensible, and its content suggests that whoever embraces this supposed 'humanism' is not to be blamed, whether they are Muslim or not. If it is meant that a person is given a choice by Allah to follow any religion after embracing this humanism, then this is disbelief (kufr), because of the Almighty's saying: "And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be among the losers" (Quran 3:85). However, if another meaning is intended, it must be clarified. If this supposed humanism contradicts Islam, then it is impermissible to advocate for it. And if it is in conformity [with Islam], then there is no need for it, as Islam is sufficient with the goodness and guidance it contains.
