The Shaykh : There is a difference between us and the others; we ... some of us do not see ...
The summary of the story, according to what ... from me, its summary was narrated by the Shaykh mentioned, objecting to one of our Salafi brothers who does not believe in the superstitions among the karamat (miracles granted to a righteous person); it is not that he does not believe in karamat, but in the superstitions among the karamat. He said to him, "What are you saying? There are no karamat of this type? Listen to this story. It happened that a man among the preachers was delivering the khutbah (sermon) on the minbar (pulpit) one Friday. The Shaykh, being considered one of the great awliya (close friends of Allah) and the righteous, revealed that one of his murids (disciples) among those present in the mosque was in distress in the Arabic sense, meaning he had a need to relieve himself. So the Shaykh, while he was praying, did this for him, and his sleeve returned in the manner of what Muhammad 'Abduh did not say: "Turbans like towers and sleeves like sheaths". His wide sleeve returned. So the distressed murid, meaning the one who wanted to relieve himself ... the Shaykh the preacher, and he found a beautiful garden, yes, and he relieved himself ... and because he ... completed the story ... because he described how sweet ... and this came out as one of the karamat of the awliya (close friends of Allah), believe it or not.
And it became clear to him that it is the truth, so follow it, if Allah wills. You ... what is your knowledge of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) and usul al-fiqh (the principles of jurisprudence)?
