Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on those who interpret the Qur'an and its verses with events happening currently in the contemporary time?

Answer:
This is not permissible; they fall under the warning,
Whoever speaks about the Qur'an based on his own opinion and without knowledge, let him take his seat from the Fire.من قال في القرآن برأيه وبما لا يعلم فليتبوأ مقعده من النار
. This is not permissible, yes.
