Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: It is mentioned in the word of Allah the Exalted in Surat al-Baqarah
And they say, "Never will the Fire touch us, except for a few days."وَقَالُوا لَن تَمَسَّنَا النَّارُ إِلَّا أَيَّامًا مَّعْدُودَةً
[Al-Baqarah 2:80]
, and He the Exalted and Majestic said in Surat al-Imran
That is because they say, "Never will the Fire touch us except for [a few] numbered days,"ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا لَن تَمَسَّنَا النَّارُ إِلَّا أَيَّامًا مَّعْدُودَاتٍ
[Ali 'Imran 3:24]
. He asks: Is there a difference between the "counted" mentioned in al-Baqarah and the "counted" mentioned in al-Imran?

Answer:
There is no difference between them; there is no difference between the "numbered" (mu'dadah) and the "numbered" (mu'dudat). They are the days in which they worshipped the calf, claiming that Allah would not punish them except for these days only.
