Transliteration:( Illaa man tawallaa wa kafar )
24.by rejecting the revelation of the Holy Qur'an, or His eternal preservation or His Laws, or by rejecting the Personality of the Holy Prophet ﷺ or his attributes or turning away from his instructions.
From this emerge two issues:
1.The obedience of the Holy Prophet is obligatory upon everybody because the pronoun "who" is mentioned without any condition.
2. It is prohibited to sit with your back towards the Holy Qur'an or towards pious people, as this too is the obvious condition of turning your back. One should abstain from this as well.
