Question:
Who is the writer who claims to be a scholar and says that speaking on the issue of whether the Qur'an is created or uncreated is an intellectual luxury, or that the disagreement on it is trivial and we should not fear it?

Answer:
Many writers. Among them, as I recall, is the Moroccan modernist al-Jabiri, one of the Moroccan modernists. I read his words in some newspapers where he says this.
He says that the research into the creation of the Qur'an, which occupied the people, and that Imam Ahmad was not tortured and imprisoned because he denied the saying of good, but rather it was a political issue because they feared for their kingship from him, so they imprisoned and tortured him. This is the speech of al-Jabiri, and others are like him.
Yes. And in it, the Shaykh, may Allah grant us assistance, Abu Ghuddah wrote a treatise on this, and Shaykh Hamud al-Tuwajiri responded to him. Abu Ghuddah diminishes the importance of this issue, saying it does not warrant all this, so Shaykh Hamud al-Tuwajiri (may Allah have mercy on him) responded to him with a crushing rebuttal. Yes.
