Question:
He asks: Do you advise a student of knowledge to benefit from al-Zamakhshari’s book on language and rhetoric?
Answer:
We advise the one who is proficient. As for the one who is not proficient, we do not advise him to read it, because it will confuse him, especially since he disparages the people of the Sunnah and the community, disparaging them and casting aspersions on them with the same interpretations. We are afraid that this will lead him to hate the people of the Sunnah and the community. Yes.
