The questioner : The questioner says: Your Excellency urges students and all mujtahids (scholars qualified to derive rulings) to adhere to the Book and the Sunnah, yet you answered the man with... using qiyas (analogical reasoning), even though qiyas is a rank among the ranks of establishing a ruling, meaning it comes after the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Please inform us, may Allah reward you with good?

The Shaykh : How can he say this? He did not understand the answer. Glory be to my Lord! I mentioned a verse and two hadiths. We said: Allah the Exalted said:
but do not cooperate in sin and aggression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty. وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الإِثْمِ وَالعُدْوَانِ وَاتَّقُوا اللهَ إِنَّ اللهَ شَدِيدُ العِقَابِ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:2]
We derived the ruling from the generality of the verse and based the derivation on two authentic hadiths that explain this verse, stating that it is not permissible for a Muslim to cooperate with others in sin and aggression. Unfortunately, the questioner probably did not understand that he was preoccupied with other matters, and I do not want to say that there is confusion in his heart, but I hope that is not the case!
