The Meaning of "Al-Hathith," and the Statement of the People of Theology That the Earth Revolves Around the Sun

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh's issue. In fact, it is more of a reality.

The Shaykh:
The rapid hadith, the hadith is the rapid one, this hadith, meaning it is not slow, but rather it is rapid. The succession of night and day is rapid, it is not slow, yes.

The questioner:
And scattered.

The Shaykh:
In the statement of the people of theology that the earth is free and that the earth is what revolves around the sun, and the sun... this is a false statement. This is a false statement that contradicts what came in the Book and the Sunnah regarding the fact that the celestial bodies, all the celestial bodies, including the sun...
...the sun is in one of the celestial orbits. All the celestial bodies, including the planets, among which are the sun and the moon and others, all revolve around the earth, and the earth is the center around which the celestial bodies revolve. So the sun, the earth is fixed and stable, and the sun and other planets revolve with their orbits around the earth. This is the explicit meaning of the Book and the Sunnah. Whoever says otherwise, his statement is false and based on conjecture with no evidence for it. Yes.
