Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do you reconcile the saying of the Exalted,[Al-Jathiyah 45:24], and His saying, [An-Naba 78:27], with the saying of the Exalted, [Az-Zumar 39:3]? Are the disbelievers in agreement on denying the resurrection?
Answer:
No, the mushrikin (those who associate partners with Allah) are not in agreement on denying the resurrection. Some of them deny the resurrection following the philosophers, while others believe in the resurrection but associate partners with Allah the Mighty and Majestic. They believe in the resurrection, Paradise, and the Fire, but they associate partners with Allah the Mighty and Majestic, so their faith does not benefit them as long as they associate partners with Him. Yes.
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do you reconcile the saying of the Exalted,
And they say, "There is not but our worldly life; we die and live, and nothing destroys us except time."
وَقَالُوا مَا هِيَ إِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا الدُّنْيَا نَمُوتُ وَنَحْيَا وَمَا يُهْلِكُنَا إِلَّا الدَّهْرُIndeed, they were not expecting an account
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا لَا يَرْجُونَ حِسَابًاWe only worship them that they may bring us nearer to Allah in position
مَا نَعْبُدُهُمْ إِلَّا لِيُقَرِّبُونَا إِلَى اللَّهِ زُلْفَىٰAnswer:
