Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I see that your statement regarding Ahmad Harat in his commentary on Ibn al-Qayyim’s saying, “Do not let the lights of the effects of the hijab be destroyed, for the lights are built upon its volcano,”
Answer:
means that he made a correction. Al-Harās (may Allah have mercy on him) corrected the Shaykh, saying that they are not like this. Now, have they entered into shirk (associating partners with Allah) and reached the lights? This is not an annotation that is acceptable, because Ibn al-Qayyim speaks about the principle, not about some cases or some individuals. Yes.
