The Ruling on the Statement: The Earth is Round, and the Pillar is Straight
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The earth is round, and the pillars are straight.
The Shaykh:
No, he said it is a false statement. The people have a misconception; they said it is a false statement. Allah said, "And We have made the earth spread out," which is closer to them. We explained in this message between the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
The questioner:
Some scholars teach the innovators, for example, the *Wasiyyah* instead of the *Wasiyyah*, and they teach from the *Tahawiyyah*.
The Shaykh:
The *'Arshiyyah* is better, the *Rasdiyyah* is better. Regarding some notes on which I attached some things, I attached marginal notes, so it is good and fine, but it contains some confusion.
