0:08 Coercion that prevents atonement
0:12 Coercion is forcing others to do or say something that contradicts their consent and choice
0:20 And forcing him to do what he does not want
0:22 It is considered when making rulings according to the agreement of scholars
0:27 Even if they differ regarding its forms, the ruling on each form, and the conditions for considered coercion
0:33 The basis for this is the saying of God Almighty
0:36 Whoever disbelieves in God after his belief, except one who is forced and whose heart is at ease with faith
0:45 But whoever spreads disbelief in his heart, upon them is the wrath of God
0:51 And for them is a great punishment
0:53 Scholars have set conditions for coercion that excuses its perpetrator
0:58 The most important of these is, firstly, that the coercer should be able to carry out his promise to the coercer
1:06 Secondly, the coercer must be unable to defend himself by any means
1:12 Thirdly, the person being forced to think most likely that the threat he is being threatened with will occur
1:18 If he does not do what he is asked to do
1:22 Fourthly, the harm resulting from coercion into disbelief is great and unbearable
1:29 Such as murder, torture, or long imprisonment
1:33 Fifthly, the forced person should not be an imam followed in the nation
1:38 In this case, he must be patient so as not to mislead people
