As believers in all of Allah's messengers and revelations to humanity, we're instructed not to display reverence or endorsement towards those who deny any of Allah's revelations or messengers. However, your presence in the gathering without such gestures is not blameworthy; it's permissible. In an earlier discussion, we addressed the ruling on saying 'Ameen' to a non-Muslim's supplication, clarifying that it's acceptable if their prayer doesn't invoke a deity other than God and doesn't signify endorsement of non-Muslim beliefs.\"},{\"insert\":\"\\n\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fe30b76658b4c23280f","tag":"Relationships: Non-Muslims","count":95},{"_id":"673204c8df1c6550cff3680c","tag":"Group Prayer","count":1}],"createdOn":"2024-11-11T13:21:12.928Z"}
