Rather, they rejected opinions out of their sincere advice *** for Allah, the caller, and the Qur'an (an example of the Companions and Successors rejecting the contradiction of the text with opinions)

The Shaykh :"Rather, they rejected opinions out of their sincere advice *** for Allah, the caller, and the Qur'an"
The pronoun "they" refers to the Companions and the Successors (may Allah be pleased with them). They rejected opinions and they rejected contradicting the text with opinions. The Messenger said, "Do not prevent," but Bilal, his son, saw the corruption among the people. Although he contradicted the text through independent legal reasoning, it is not permissible to contradict the text. Allah and His Messenger know best. Follow the text, for in it is the good. If a specific thing happens, deal with it. But to contradict the text and say, "By Allah, we will prevent them," when the Messenger said, "Do not prevent," is an error. However, if a fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) arises from a specific woman, prevent her. Contradicting the text in this way is dangerous. That is why he said:
"Rather, they rejected opinions out of their sincere advice *** for Allah, the caller, and the Qur'an".
The pronoun "they" refers to the Companions and the Successors (may Allah be pleased with them). They rejected opinions and they rejected contradicting the text with opinions.
When 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Do not prevent the women of Allah from the mosques of Allah," his son Bilal said: "By Allah, we will prevent them."
لما حدث عبد الله بن عمر عن النبي عليه الصلاة والسلام : لا تمنعوا إماء الله مساجد الله قال ابنه بلال : والله لنمنعهنHe said, "By Allah, we will prevent them." So his father, 'Abdullah, cursed him with a severe curse, never having cursed him like that before. He said: "I am telling you that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Do not prevent the women of Allah from the mosques of Allah,' and you say, 'By Allah, we will prevent them.'" Then he boycotted him until he died.
قال والله لنمنعهن فأقبل أبوه عبد الله سبه سبا شديدا ما سبه مثله قط وقال : أقول لك قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم :لا تمنعوا إماء الله مساجد الله وتقول والله لنمنعهن ثم هجره حتى مات"Rather, they rejected opinions out of their sincere advice *** for Allah, the caller, and the Qur'an".
