What is the ruling on one who apostatizes from morals but does not apostatize from religion, such as one who denies chivalry, generosity, and manliness, but believes in tribalism and fanaticism? And what about one who apostatizes from religion but does not apostatize from morals? And what is the ruling on one who apostatizes from religion because they are convinced that religion does not rise to their moral standards, and one who denies divorce and polygyny in Islam, believing it to be a moral decline?

Whoever denies the existence of Islamic ethics or Islam's call to them, while knowing so, is an apostate disbeliever. As for whoever practically abandons embodying them and instead embodies their opposite, he is sinful but not a disbeliever merely by that. And whoever apostatizes from the religion is a disbeliever who will abide eternally in Hell if he dies upon that, even if he possessed good character. And believing that religion does not fulfill people's aspirations is disbelief and an aspersion against Allah. And whoever denies polygamy and divorce, the ruling of the Sharia and its proofs should be explained to him. If he persists in his denial, then he is a disbeliever for belying Allah the Almighty, and he must be asked to repent, otherwise he is to be killed.
