The Abrogation of the Qur'an by the Sunnah and the Hadith: "Do Not Marry a Woman to Her Aunt"

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does the Sunnah abrogate the Qur'an? And is there a text in His saying, "And lawful to you [in marriage] are [all] others beyond these," that is contradicted by the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Do not marry a woman to her aunt or her maternal aunt"?

Answer:
This is an addition to what is in the Qur'an. The Messenger is inspired with the Sunnah just as he is inspired with the Qur'an. So this is an addition to the prohibitions. What began with the Sunnah is like what began with the Qur'an; all of it is from Allah the Exalted. So this is an addition to what was mentioned in the Qur'an. Yes. For example, "Say: I do not find in what has been revealed to me any prohibition against eating..." The Sunnah added the prohibition of every type of carrion. When it said, "And the hearts of the beasts of prey," this is what the Qur'an specified, but this is a Sunnah. Yes.
