The ruling on reading a book containing figurative interpretations and the alternative to it

The questioner:
And what is seen is that the one who is afflicted with a condition that prevents him from reviving his slaves and his condition is bad, where the people said: Do not come, for upon him is the symbol of the people of Islam.

The Shaykh:
The book is good in general, in general, and does it contain some figurative interpretations? It contains some figurative interpretations, but in general there is nothing wrong with it. However, it is not suitable for a beginner student to read it. There are, praise be to Allah, guaranteed books that do not contain figurative interpretation, such as the books of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, the books of Ibn al-Qayyim, the old books of the Salaf, the books of the Sunnah, Kitab al-Sunnah by Ibn Abi 'Asim, Usul Ahl al-Sunnah by al-Husaymi, by Ibn Batta, by al-'Ukbari, and many others, Kitab al-Shari'ah by al-Ajuri. All of these suffice in place of a book that may contain some errors that only students of knowledge would notice.
