The questioner:
the creation of the Qur'an is a matter that has been given more weight than it deserves?
The Shaykh:
This is an ignorant person who does not know, or a heretic, or a disbeliever, may Allah protect us from that. It has not been given more weight than it deserves. It is not permissible to say that the Qur'an is created, nor to suspend judgment on the matter. This is not permissible. It is said that the Qur'an is revealed; this is the truth. It is not concealed, but made clear. One does not say to suspend judgment. But this claim that it has been given more weight than it deserves is a false statement. Yes, the truth must be clarified. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
The one who says to be silent means that he is hesitating regarding the creation of the Qur'an: is it the truth or is it not the truth? As for the one who is certain that it is false, he explicitly states this and declares it. One does not say to suspend judgment except a person who is in doubt, may Allah protect us from that.
