Abandoning the study of 'aqidah on the grounds of adhering to the 'aqidah of the old women
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What is your guidance (may Allah preserve you) for one who does not strive to study 'aqidah, especially what concerns qadar (divine decree), out of fear of making mistakes and having many doubts? He says: Let us stick to the 'aqidah of the old women without going into depth. He asks: What is the guidance in this matter?
Answer:
The 'aqidah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and we remain on the 'aqidah of the ignorant old women? This is false speech. We learn 'aqidah, we study it, and we understand it so that we do not fall into its opposite or into what leads to misguidance. Yes.
