Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: There are those who say that we Muslims suffer from problems of money, right? What is it? He says: There are those who say that we Muslims
The Shaykh:
Yes, Muslims. What is it but Muslims? "Muslims" is in the accusative case for specification. Yes.
The questioner:
There are those who say that we Muslims suffer from many problems, wars, and division. He asks: Why do we disagree on matters of belief, such as the issue of the creation of the Qur'an?
The Shaykh:
They differ according to their teachers, instructors, and preachers, who are the ones who keep them in the dark and indoctrinate them with these things. Yes.
The questioner:
He asks: And will it change?
The Shaykh:
No, even reading their books. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. And he asks: Is the disagreement now commensurate with the existing differences among Muslims? Is mentioning disagreement in matters of creed commensurate with the differences among Muslims?
The Shaykh:
It is necessary to clarify the truth from misguidance, and it is necessary to explain the creed. We cannot remain silent and say, "Let people sort themselves out." That is not acceptable. It is necessary to clarify, it is necessary to explain, and it is necessary to teach. Yes.
