Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: Is it permissible to interpret the Qur'an with the Isra'iliyyat?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible to interpret the Qur'an with the Isra'iliyyat. They are mentioned, but they are not relied upon. It is said, “Report from the Children of Israel,” and there is no harm in that, but the Isra'iliyyat are not relied upon in interpreting the Noble Qur'an. Yes.
