The ruling on one who says that Jibril (peace be upon him) became tired from counting the gates of Paradise
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa number ( 21768 )
Q 3: One who says: That Jibril (peace be upon him), when he wanted to count the gates of Paradise, became tired and did not complete the count of the gates, and that when he saw the light of the houris, he prostrated to them, thinking that they were Allah. Does this statement count as disbelief?
A 3: One who says that Jibril prostrated to the houris is a disbeliever, because he described the master of the angels with shirk (associating partners with Allah), and Allah is Exalted above that. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
