The Ruling on the Barrier and Its Location
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And if a questioner asks: Where is the barrier now, and where is it located?
Answer:
There is no doubt that the barrier exists, as Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, informed us about it, and that it will remain until the time of its collapse at the end of time,[Al-Kahf 18:98], so it will remain. As for where it is? Allah knows best.
Allah knows best. People do not know everything in the universe; there are things hidden from people, even for those of invention and those of airplanes, they have not encompassed the entire universe. There are things they do not know about, which Allah has hidden from them. Yes, it is not possible, as some of the doubters say, that modern science has spread and that nothing remains on earth undiscovered. This is from their ignorance, this is from their ignorance and their arrogance. There are things that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has hidden from them, and they have not reached them, until the day comes when Allah reveals them to them. For every term there is a record.[Al-An'am 6:67] It is not permissible for a person
