Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: The Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned in al-Wasitiyyah the types of supernatural events, stating that they are of two types: the type of knowledge and the type of power. Here, he mentioned a third type, which is the type of wealth.
Answer:
Wealth in relation to people means being independent of people. What was mentioned in al-Wasitiyyah was not from the perspective of exhaustive enumeration; it was not mentioned as an exhaustive list. Therefore, there is no objection to adding to it, whether in this regard or in others. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
