The Shaykh’s clarification of some of the false beliefs of the Qadiyyah.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : A sufficient example of this is the new sects, namely the Qadiyyah, who are also called the Ahmadiyyah. These are the last of the Islamic sects to have an entity, distinct personalities, a presence, and a widespread call in European and American countries under the name of Islam. These people are Muslims who perform the five daily prayers and perform Hajj to the House of Allah, but they deny established legal facts explicitly stated in the Book and the Sunnah, which no one before them had claimed. They are like the Mu'tazilah, the Maturidiyyah, and the Asha'irah. For example, they deny that there is a creation called the jinn, even though there is a chapter in the Qur'an named Surat al-Jinn. Now, do they deny the Qur'an? Do they deny the chapter? No, but they tell us that you did not understand the meaning of the jinn. The jinn are like the humans and mankind. Do these two terms, "humans" and "mankind," refer to one referent or two? No, one referent. They have brought a third referent: humans, mankind, and jinn. Three names are applied to one referent, which is mankind. When you bring them a verse from the Qur'an:
You created me from fire and created him from clay." خلقتني من نار وخلقته من طين
[Al-A'raf 7:12]
they tell you that this is not real fire, nor real clay, but rather it is a metaphor, a metaphor. And when you bring them the authentic hadith in Muslim:
Allah created the angels from light, and He created the jinn from fire, and He created Adam from what He has described to you. خلق الله الملائكة من نور ، وخلق الجان من نار ، وخلق آدم مما وصف لكم
Sahih Ibn Hibban 62:18
they tell you that this is an ahad hadith, an ahad hadith, ahad, meaning it is not mutawatir. An ahad hadith does not establish a belief. This is misguidance, namely the claim that an ahad hadith does not establish a belief. Unfortunately, this is not a Qadiyyah doctrine; the Qadiyyah preceded this misguidance by centuries. However, they did not precede the interpretation of the jinn as being humans or mankind. Al-Azhar al-Sharif now, the one they call al-Sharif, teaches the students whom they distribute throughout the Islamic world to call people to Islam that an authentic hadith is not cited as evidence in matters of belief unless it is mutawatir. What does mutawatir mean? It means that it comes through many routes, meaning that ten Companions narrated it, and ten from the Tabi'un narrated it from ten Companions, and so on. In any case, I wanted to be brief, but as they say, the hadith has many branches. Yes, indeed.
onAl-Halabi : What do they gain from ta'til (denial of the divine attributes)?

The Shaykh : Following desires. Their intellects rule their minds, and their Shari'ah does not rule them.
Al-Halabi : Have you seen the one who takes his desire as his god?
