(The Creed of the People of the Sunnah: Prioritizing Transmission over Reason, Unlike the People of Denial of Attributes) This is while we abandon opinions *** for the correct transmission and the decisive criterion, but you

The Shaykh : He says: But you
"This is while we abandon opinions *** for the correct transmission and the decisive criterion"
So our school, my brothers, is to prioritize transmission over reason, and we see that transmission is the source of reception, especially in matters concerning the names and attributes of Allah.
"But you, on the contrary", and what does "on the contrary" mean? It means you prioritized reason over transmission. Note that the reason they prioritized is not clear reason, because it is reason built on doubts. As for clear reason, it cannot contradict correct transmission, nor can it oppose it.
"But you, on the contrary, have declared it *** and established this law of slander".
