The questioner : Shaykh, is there a hadith in ?
The Shaykh : No, we were commanded to be moderate, meaning this command. The verse was interpreted in two ways: the first interpretation is according to its apparent meaning, but this is a cosmic command, not a legislative one. And in a reading, meaning "and they were lenient with them, so they corrupted the earth."
