The Creation of the Sirat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Whoever says that the Sirat was created on the day the Fire was created.
The Shaykh:
Allah is the Greatest. This is a matter of the people of Kalam. Yes. I think this is the case. Allah knows best. But the apparent meaning of the hadiths is that the Sirat is placed on the bridge. It is not a place for the people of Kalam to argue over.
The questioner:
May Allah forgive you, O Shaykh. Since you left your job.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
