'Umar’s Vision of al-Ashkar: Between Foresight and Inspiration

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner asks about 'Umar’s vision of al-Ashkar when he was young, and his saying to him, “Woe to him, and woe to the people because of him.”

The Shaykh:
Who?

The questioner:
About 'Umar’s (may Allah be pleased with him) vision of al-Ashkar.

The Shaykh:
Perfect.

The questioner:
Al-Ashkar.

The Shaykh:
Al-Nu'man al-Nakha'i? Allah knows best, I do not know. Yes.

The questioner:
We ask: Is this from foresight (farasah) or from inspiration (ilham)?

The Shaykh:
I do not know. If this is authentic, then it is from foresight. Foresight is inspiration. Foresight is inspiration. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
