Prohibition of Preferring One Prophet Over Another
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Some have stated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Do not prefer me over Musa,” and that he said this out of humility, and to block the door to disputes that lead to fanaticism and tribalism.
Answer:
If the preference is out of fanaticism, as we told you at the beginning, then it is not permissible. But if it is out of gratitude to Allah and to clarify the reality, then there is no harm. Yes.
