The questioner : Regarding this... because the verse is explicit that the speech was real, meaning...
Eid Abbasi : ... .
The questioner : The brother says: It must be...
Eid Abbasi : He heard speech.
The questioner : He heard something about it...
The Shaykh : Yes, that is right.
The questioner : ...a prophet or...
The Shaykh : So what does that mean, what is the problem? What is...?
The questioner : The problem is that the exegetes said that it is: We inspired.
The Shaykh: All right.
The questioner : But how does this inspiration come? He says...[Al-Qasas 28:7]?
The Shaykh : Inspiration, inspiration means this speech was cast into her soul.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Listen, now, when it was said to the Messenger, peace be upon him:[Al-Ikhlas 112:1] Did he hear this speech directly from Allah, or did Jibril bring it down to him? Yes, so here, a fortiori, regarding the mother of Moses; this speech was said to her by whatever means it was.
...
Eid Abbasi, so here there is a casting into the soul, without Jibril descending and speaking to her, is this the type?
The Shaykh : This is the wahy (revelation), and this is the difference between wahy and ilham (inspiration), meaning ilham and wahy meet in that they are a casting into the soul, but one separates from the other in that wahy is protected from error, and in that ilham may be subject to error according to its owner; so there is nothing more than this.
Eid Abbasi : It may be in a dream - also - a person's vision... that either Allah or an angel spoke to him?
The Shaykh : It is possible, it is possible, and the dream is a part of prophethood.
Yes.

Indeed, We will return him to you and will make him [one] of the messengers."

Eid Abbasi
The Holy Spirit breathed into my soul that no soul will die until it completes its provision
إن روح القدس نَفَثَ في روعي ؛ أنه لن تموت نفسٌ حتى تستكمِلَ زرقهاThe Shaykh : This is the wahy (revelation), and this is the difference between wahy and ilham (inspiration), meaning ilham and wahy meet in that they are a casting into the soul, but one separates from the other in that wahy is protected from error, and in that ilham may be subject to error according to its owner; so there is nothing more than this.

Yes.
