The Ruling on Interpreting the Qur'an by the Qur'an and the Sunnah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some people say that the Qur'an is interpreted by the Qur'an and the Sunnah, not by the Qur'an and the Sunnah. What is your opinion on that?
Answer:
His statement is of no value; it indicates his ignorance. Where did he get this reason from? The Qur'an is interpreted by the Qur'an. If no interpretation is found in the Qur'an, it is interpreted by the Sunnah. If it is not found in the Sunnah, it is interpreted by the statements of the Companions. This is what the scholars have mentioned. As for someone coming to us and mixing things up on his own, no, we do not accept that.
