So the question is : If somebody has a thought of kufr and they said part of it or all of it without intending to or wanting to and they are angered by it, does this count as kufr?
Q: Is it kufr if I put on a movie where the actor says "Jesus" or "Oh my God"?

Q: I do not stock a certain brand of permissible underwear products. When customers query regarding these products, I refer them to a non-Muslim competitor who stocks these brands.

His products are shipped to customers. Is it correct to refer people to purchase from such a person?
