Question:
Peace be upon you. This questioner asks: What is the interpretation of the saying of Allah, Glorified and Exalted: "Indeed, some assumption is sin"?
Answer:
That is to say, not all assumption is [sin]; there is some truth in assumption. So Allah, Glorified and Exalted, did not make all assumption a sin, but rather only some of it. And since some of it is a sin, one should avoid much of it as a precaution, so that he does not fall into the little that is a sin.
