Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: The imam of a mosque, this questioner is from outside this country. He says: The imam of our mosque believes that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) knows the unseen, and that he is everywhere if he wishes. Is the prayer valid behind this imam?
Answer:
No, this is disbelief, and I seek refuge in Allah. The one who claims that the Messenger knows the unseen; only Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) knows the unseen. The one who claims that anyone knows the unseen is a disbeliever, and I seek refuge in Allah. Yes, the Messenger does not know of the unseen except what Allah taught him. Yes.
