We Must Declare Takfeer Against Apostates
From Al Muhajiroun
.... the one who was Muslim, but then commits apostasy, we must declare takfeer on them. Takfeer is purification of the camp of Islam, and is worship to Allan Allah (swt), we become closer (qurba) to Allan Allah by making takfeer. The one who wants to speak like the kaafir, act like the kaafir, fight with the kaafir against Muslims, they have no right to remain in the camp of Imaan and Tawheed. Those in the Camp of Islam have certain privileges, they marry from the Muslims, they give and take the salami salam from the Muslims, they have rights over Muslims. However the one who commits apostasy from Islam, has no right to those privileges, they have no right to remain in the camp of Imaan, rather they must be with the camp of Kufr, or the kuffar and Mushrikeen. ....
Two Muslims went to Muhammad (saw) with a dispute for arbitration, he judged between them. One man disagreed with the verdict, and said, "I disagree", his companion asked what to do. .... they went to Umar and told him what had happened, Umar [ibn Khattab] told them to wait and he went into his home to retrieve his sword, he struck the first man who disagreed and injured and then chased the second man. .... Umar ibn Khattab judged them to be kaafir on what was apparent, without to check their heart, and ... so Muhammad (saw) hugged him and said, "Allan Allah has purified you from the seventh heaven." ....
