A man rejects hadiths about the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with his intellect, saying that this cannot come from the Messenger of Allah because this action contradicts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : When... such an opinion is mentioned, that he rejects, for example, a hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), that he, for example, spat in food, and says that this is inconsistent with propriety
The Shaykh : with his character.
The questioner : So it cannot come from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), meaning he rejects the text of this matter, not from the perspective of the validity of the chain or the invalidity of the chain, but from this perspective.
The Shaykh : I know, it is permissible to declare them disbelievers, but according to whom? They are misguided and deviated from the path. Why is it not permissible to declare them disbelievers? Because deep in their hearts they purify Allah (Mighty and Majestic), so this figurative interpretation was presented to them. So this one is misguided and these are misguided, because they contradicted the truth, but we do not dare to declare them disbelievers, ever. This person is spoken to with calmness, knowledge, and thought, and so on. It is said to him, "Your intellect has judged." No matter how much he is pleased with his intellect, I do not think he will get involved and say to you, "Yes, my intellect has judged."
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : No, allow me, he might say to you, "But if you follow him in the hadith and say to him, 'Your intellect has judged,' and he says to you, 'Yes,' then what about your second colleague's intellect? It has judged, and he says to you, 'Yes,' and the dozens and thousands of differing intellects, all of them have judged. No matter how dull or ignorant the man is, he does not reach with you to, 'Yes, this is his intellect's judgment, and this is his intellect's judgment...' They become judges, these people, by the number of humans, millions, millions. Any animal in the world would say this. But when you stop at him and he is arrogant with himself, he will tell you, 'My intellect has judged,' but between him and the consequence of this statement, he will realize the consequence of his foolishness. It is not reasonable.
