Clarifying the nature of the disagreement with the Murji'ah jurists
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the validity of the claim that the disagreement with the Murji'ah of the jurists is a verbal disagreement, and what is the validity of attributing that to Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah in his book on Faith?
Answer:
This statement is incorrect. The disagreement between the people of the Sunnah and the Murji'ah is a substantive, real disagreement, not a verbal one. Perhaps those who want to downplay the issue and calm things down might say this, but those who want to clarify the truth do not say this, and Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah did not say this either.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
