What is the ruling on one who denies some of the details of the Day of Resurrection, such as the Houris, and says that the intended meaning is pleasure?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does faith in the Day of Resurrection require a person to believe in all of its details? There is a man who believes in the Day of Resurrection but denies the existence of the Houris, and he mentions that the verses regarding them only intend the pleasure and bliss that the believer finds in Paradise.

Answer:
Whoever denies any of the matters of the Hereafter, in Paradise or in Hellfire, by denying something or distorting it and interpreting it other than its true meaning, is a disbeliever. We ask Allah for safety. The Qur'an is not interpreted by opinion or by thought. It is only interpreted by the correct methods of exegesis that are explicitly stated.
The Qur'an is interpreted by the Qur'an, or by the Sunnah, or by the interpretation of the Companions, or by the interpretation of the Tabi'un, or by the language in which it was revealed. It is not interpreted by thought or by opinion. Whoever speaks about the Qur'an with his opinion and with what he does not know, let him take his seat in the Fire. And even if he errs and hits the mark, the Qur'an is not interpreted except by the known methods of exegesis.
Not everyone interprets the Qur'an according to his desire and his understanding and... And the greatest of this is if he denies some of what is in the Qur'an and rejects it, interpreting it other than its meaning, and speaking about Allah without knowledge.
