Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the fitrah alone sufficient to establish the argument, or does the argument not stand except by the sending of the messengers?

Answer:
As Allah the Exalted said:
And never would We punish until We sent a messenger.وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّىٰ نَبْعَثَ رَسُولًا
[Al-Isra 17:15]
Therefore, the sending of the messenger and the reaching of his call are necessary. Yes.
