Advice for the one who makes the Qur'an a spiritual feeling with no reality
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh was asked: What is your advice for the one who believes that the Qur'an contains no writing, but is a spiritual feeling, more like what he finds from his fathers and grandfathers, and has no reality? And does he know
The Shaykh:
that he is a denier of Allah. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says regarding all of it:[Fussilat 41:44]. So it is a cure for physical diseases and a cure for heart diseases, for doubts and illusions, and a cure. [Al-Isra 17:82] A cure. A cure from diseases and a cure from corrupt beliefs. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to seek healing with the Qur'an; he used to perform ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) and be healed by it, peace and blessings be upon him. So this person is a denier, but it is attributed to ignorance; however, if it is intentional, there is no excuse.
The presenter:
How much?
The Shaykh:
This is what the tongue confirms; he holds his tongue back from this disease, and he does not deny what he has no knowledge of.
