Diminishing a Prophet from among the Prophets
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep him safe. Has it benefited us that one Prophet was sent to us from all the Prophets, that Moses (peace be upon him) was a barrier for Allah? And is this connected to Moses (peace be upon him)?
Answer:
Yes, diminishing Moses, and that he was stubborn, and that he was spoiled, and how he was spoiled, all of this is diminishing Moses (peace be upon him). One fears for the person doing it that he may fall into disbelief, unless he is ignorant, and he is one of those who are excused due to ignorance. As for the ignorant person who lives among the Muslims and reads the Qur'an, this is not known. The bottom line is that it is not permissible to diminish any Prophet from among the Prophets, (peace and blessings be upon him), yes.
