Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: The prohibition against imitating the Bedouins? For example, the 'atamah. How do we reconcile this with adopting their language?
Answer:
Language is not legislation, my brother. Imitating legislation that contradicts the Shari'ah is one thing, but language is a matter that is sought. Language came from the Arabs and is taken from them, and it is not legislation. Yes.
