    Harming Non-Muslims Who Reside in Muslim Lands

    Original Title:

    Author: Abd al-Azz Ibn Bz

    Harming Non-Muslims Who Reside in Muslim Lands1

    Question: What is the ruling of showing hostility towards foreign tourists and visitors
    residing in Islamic lands?

    Answer: This is forbidden. Showing hostility is not permitted against anyone whether he
    is a tourist or worker because hes been guaranteed safety and security merely by
    entering the country legally under a contract of peace. So, hostility towards them is not
    allowed. Rather, if any issues need to be raised, then the proper authorities must be
    informed in order for them to be prevented (from committing any crimes). As for
    individuals showing hostility and aggression toward them, this is forbidden. Individuals
    have no right to kill them, beat them, or harm them in any way. Instead, it is binding upon
    them to bring any matter to the attention of those in authority. Any form of aggression
    against them is considered a transgression against someone who has entered the
    country in peace, being guaranteed safety, and is thus impermissible. So, if there occurs
    anything from them (foreign tourists and visitors) that is questionable, then the matter
    should be raised to the appropriate authorities those who have the capability of
    preventing them from entering the country or preventing them from the crimes, if any,
    they may be committing.

    As for advising them and calling them to Islam or to abandon committing sins, this is
    required if they are Muslims. The general legislative evidences indicate this.

    We seek help from Allh as there is no strength or power except by him. May he send
    prayers and peace upon our prophet Muhammad and upon his family and companions.

    This fatw was taken from a book called Al-Fatw Ash-Shariyyah f Al-Qadhy Al-Asriyyah,
    a collection of various rulings by Muhammad Ibn Fahd Al-Husayn.
    Majm al-Fatw wal-Maqlt (8/239).
