Taking Fiqh from the People of Innovation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says, may Allah reward you: He read in the book *Irsad al-Talibin* by Fakhr al-Din al-Razi the statement of the author (may Allah have mercy on him) that taking fiqh from the people of innovation does not harm one, because he did not take 'aqidah (creed) from them, but rather he took fiqh.
Answer:
Praise be to Allah. Allah has not compelled us to take knowledge from the people of innovation and the misguiders. There are scholars, praise be to Allah, upon the Sunnah and upon uprightness, from whom we take knowledge. Allah has not made us in need of these people. Yes.
