Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Abid, may Allah preserve you, asks: When is scholarly disagreement considered valid?
Answer:
When it has a share of consideration, as the poet said: "Not every disagreement that comes is considered, except a disagreement that has a share of consideration." If the disagreement has a possibility in the evidence and has a perspective, then it has a share of consideration. As for the difference that has no place in the evidence, and is merely a guess or that he followed his desires, this has no consideration. Yes.
