The Arrival of Space Travelers to Other Planets

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh (may Allah grant you success) said: Are there any proofs indicating that astronauts and those on space trips have reached the other planets?

Answer:
Allah knows best. The planets are those whom Allah created and raised. And as for them, they are disbelievers, so we do not accept their reports. Allah the Exalted says:
O you who have believed, if there comes to you a disobedient one with information, investigateيَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن جَاءَكُمْ فَاسِقٌ بِنَبَإٍ فَتَبَيَّنُوا
[Al-Hujurat 49:6]
So how about the disbeliever? We do not accept their reports even if they said they had prayed. Yes.
