What this part covers

machinesummary, machine-written

A person's atheism or doubts are their own choice and he does not judge them; what he objects to, he says, is staged exorcisms and charity money taken under false pretences.

In more detail

Mufti Abu Layth says the couple used their platform to boost a ruqya and exorcism business, reportedly charging about 300 pounds a session, and that videos of exorcisms have been exposed as staged with the wife's involvement, rejecting the view that she was only a victim. He says the worst part was charity appeals, reportedly raising 300,000 pounds into a personal bank account, money people gave believing it would help Muslims such as the Rohingya. He says that if a person is an atheist it is their choice, that there is no compulsion in Islam, and that he does not judge people who have doubts, have left the faith or drink. His issue, he says, is the facade, the fake preaching and the perpetuation of superstition and jinn possession they did not themselves believe, while taking money for charity.
