The Effect of Abandoning Refutation on the Hardness of Hearts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Allah the Exalted says: What has befallen you regarding those who say that the books and the judgment will harden the hearts.
Answer:
No, it is abandoning refutation that hardens the hearts, because people live in error and misguidance, and their hearts become hard. But if the truth is clarified and falsehood is refuted, that is certainly what softens the hearts.
