Question:
A few days ago, a man appeared in this country who claims affiliation with the Zahiriyyah. In a public lecture before the audience, he stated that the claim that the Qur'an is created or uncreated is entirely a religious innovation (bid'ah), and that the Companions did not speak on this. What is your honorable opinion on this statement?
Answer:
I wish you would answer regarding the tape of his lecture that was recorded, and the name of the lecturer, so we can see, if Allah wills. Yes.
