Question:

What is the ruling on the one that says “I am a believer inshaAllah”?

Answer:

This issue of making an exception in Eeman.

For if indeed he had doubts regarding the foundation of his Islam then they said this exception is not befitting, but if he said it in consideration to the end result and (what) his final state (will be) and the strength of his Eeman, they said it is allowed, or mentioning InshaAllah with the intention of seeking blessing.
