Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The number seven appears in several places: in tawaf and sa'y, in the 'aqiqah for a newborn, in the days of the week, and elsewhere. Does this number have any distinction in the Shari'ah?
Answer:
No, this is the belief of the Batiniyyah. They are the ones who rely on numbers. Muslims do not rely on numbers, nor do they believe that numbers have any merit. Yes.
