Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some preachers, in their interpretation of the saying of Allah the Exalted[Al-Mumtahanah 60:5], stated that the intended meaning is what occurs from the actions of some Muslims, such as harshness, lack of adherence to the religion, and the like. Is this correct? And that a person may be a cause of the misguidance and trial of people?
Answer:
I do not know about this; that is what I know. What prevails in my opinion is that the intended meaning is that Allah does not allow the disbelievers to overpower the Muslims, so that the disbelievers are tried and their evil and disbelief increase, and thus they become a trial by which Allah tries the disbelievers with increased disbelief and overpowering the Muslims. This is what appears to me, and Allah knows best. Yes. And perhaps this verse is clarified by the other verse from Surat Yunus:[Yunus 10:85-86]. The supplications with which Musa and his people, peace and blessings be upon him, supplicated.
