The Ruling on Prohibition and Its Basis in Prohibition
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that *karahah* (dislike) among the Salaf means prohibition, and you mentioned that if Imam Ahmad says something is disliked, that means it is forbidden. Does prohibition also fall under this, such that when it is mentioned, its meaning is prohibition?
Answer:
How? The default with Allah is that it is for prohibition, unless the evidence indicates that it is for dislike. The default is that it is for prohibition; this is a rule.
