Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The Shaykh of Islam (may Allah have mercy on him) stated in various places that obedience is a right shared between Allah and His Messenger, as Allah the Exalted said: "And obey Allah and obey the Messenger." Yes, but he said in today's lesson, "None is called upon except Allah, and none is obeyed except Allah." So how is that?
Answer:
The principle is that none is obeyed except Allah. The Messenger is a conveyor; he is obeyed. The Messenger is also obeyed because he conveys from Allah. So the origin of obedience is for Allah, and the Messenger is merely a conveyor of obedience to Allah.
