Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is our position regarding a karamah (a miracle granted to a righteous person)? Is it merely belief, or is there something else? Belief in it, as the Shaykh said,
Answer:
The position of the people of the Sunnah and the community is to believe in the karamat (miracles granted to righteous persons) of the awliya (close friends of Allah). We believe only in the karamat of the awliya; we do not believe in the supernatural acts of sorcerers. It is only the karamat of the awliya. This does not mean that we cling to them, call upon them, or seek intercession through them. Rather, it means that we love them and follow their example in worshipping Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
