Knowledge of what is in the wombs and the disclosure of doctors through X-rays
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
So let him leave the matter after that. And after seeing the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he should say, “Allah and His Messenger know best,” because of this, the angel is in a strange term.
The Shaykh:
After the death of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), it is said, “Allah knows best.” This was only during the lifetime of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), “Allah and His Messenger know best.” This was during the lifetime of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). As for after his death, it is said, “Allah knows best.” This is what comes, yes.
The questioner:
And the best of those who refuse to know the Hour, until Allah knows that they are the sick and know what is in the wombs, and there are many doctors because they can know what is in the wombs, so it was forgotten, so we say if the prophets did well, how do we provide it among us?
The Shaykh:
There is no cooperation between those who do not know what is in the wombs except Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). As for the doctors, they do not know by their own knowledge, but rather through X-rays. Through X-rays, they did not know it from themselves, but rather they knew it through X-rays. And when the X-rays appear, it is like when a mother gives birth, do you not see such a thing? Because the X-rays revealed it, and without X-rays, they do not know this, and it is not possible for them to know ever without X-rays. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) knows everything. This is from one aspect. The second aspect. The first aspect is that they did not know what is in the womb by their own knowledge.
That is, one regrets and asks, is this woman carrying a male or a female? No one knows this, but when the X-rays come, the X-rays are a means that revealed the female, just as if a trust was born. Also, the angel, the angel who is a creation of Allah’s creations, who comes to the woman’s womb to form the fetus, asks Allah, is it a male or a female? Allah (Mighty and Majestic) commands him to do so, so he knows about this fetus or this from one aspect. The second aspect is that even if they knew that it was a male, do they know that he will live and remain, or do they know that he will die soon? They do not know these details, just as they do not know whether he will be wretched or happy? No one knows this except Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Do they know that he will be a believer or a disbeliever? Do they know that he will be rich or poor? Do they know his provision? Do they know when he will die? These are all matters they do not know, so it indicates that the details are not known except by Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
And also, they may make mistakes in their reports. They may say it is a male, and it may turn out to be a female. The things may fail to reveal the gender of the pregnancy, whether it is a male or a female. Their statement or report is not a settled matter. There is no doubt in it. There is doubt, there is strong doubt, there is discrepancy, there is disagreement even among the doctors in this matter, yes.
