The reason for the contradiction of servitude in prohibitions
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah keep you safe, O Shaykh. What Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned in *I'lam al-Muwaqqi'in* regarding the prohibition of gold and silver, because it is a contradiction of servitude.
The Shaykh:
It contains a contradiction of servitude.
The questioner:
Is it not possible to say that this reason can be applied to every prohibition in the Shari'ah?
The Shaykh:
Yes, it is possible. Let it be said that for anyone who does not adhere to the commands and prohibitions of Allah, this is a deficiency in his servitude. There is no harm in that.
