Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, whoever interprets the saying of the Exalted and Majestic[An-Nazi'at 79:30] by interpreting it as meaning that He made it spherical or spread it out, is his interpretation correct?
Answer:
This is from one who interprets the Qur'an with ideas, opinions, and theories; the Qur'an is not interpreted with evidence. Interpret the Qur'an with evidence, because it is the speech of the Lord of the worlds; one does not speak nonsense in its interpretation. Yes.
