Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it true that the meaning of karahah among the Salaf is that it means prohibition?
Answer:
Yes, it means prohibition. This is in the Qur'an, in the words of the Exalted and Majestic is He, in the verses in Surat al-Isra:[Al-Isra 17:22-23] to the end of the verses, "Do not do this, do not do that," then He said: [Al-Isra 17:38] disliked, meaning forbidden.
Dislike is used in the Qur'an and the Sunnah to mean prohibition. Also, what the Salaf held was that what is disliked to them is what is forbidden. The later scholars began to divide sin into two categories: disliked with the dislike of prohibition, and disliked with the dislike of deprecation. Yes.

كُلُّ ذَٰلِكَ كَانَ سَيِّئُهُ عِندَ رَبِّكَ مَكْرُوهًاDislike is used in the Qur'an and the Sunnah to mean prohibition.
