Questioner:

Some people claim that Ibn Lāden is the awaited Mahdī and they name him “The Leader of the Muslims.” What do you say concerning this?

Shaykh Aḥmed al-Najmi:

These people are devils! This people are devils!  Ibn Lāden is a filthy devil and a renegade. It is not permissible for anyone to praise him and whosoever praises him, then it is evidence that he is a renegade just like him.
