The Bahnasiyyah
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ The Khwarijiyyah sect, the Bahnasiyyah are historically related to Abu Bahnas, of which little is known. They maintained a man cannot be considered a Muslim until he knows everything that Allah ( s.w.t. ) has Made lawful to him, and everything that He has Made unlawful to him, specifically and personally. There are some amongst them who said that if a person commits a sinful offence, he should not be treated as a disbeliever until he has been arraigned before the sulthan , so that the latter may impose upon him the penalty prescribed by the shari’ah for his particular offence, and that only then should he be convicted of kufr .
