I kept the word Gallickgun as my password
It is a word used in an anime series as considered as a power blast weapon by a character( Vegeta) who is involved in shirk
But I just kept the password for the name of it
Not believing in any of the shirk part
Is it a sin on me
If so , then what type of sin is it?
Answer:
Wa’alaykum as Salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,
The fact that you are asking the question already shows that your heart is not comfortable with keeping this type of a password. The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said:
“الإثم : ما حاك في نفسك ” (رواه مسلم)
“A sin is that which plays on your conscious.”
In another narration, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said:
والإثم ما حاك في صدرك وإن أفتاك عنه الناس (أخرجه أحمد)
“A sin is that which makes you uncomfortable, even if people give you a verdict to the contrary.”
Therefore, you should rather keep a password which will not cause you to have any doubts.
And Allaah Ta’aala knows best
Wassalaam,
