The Meaning of the Poet's Saying: "And you made takfir (declaring someone a disbeliever) the very essence of your disagreement *** And your agreement the reality of faith. Your agreement is the measure of Allah's religion, not *** the one who brought the proof and the criterion"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And you made takfir (declaring someone a disbeliever) the very essence of your disagreement" means that you made takfir (declaring someone a disbeliever) to be that people disagree with you; the essence of your disagreement is your disagreement with people. "And your agreement" means that you made your agreement "the reality of faith", meaning that you made your agreement to be faith and your disagreement to be disbelief. Based on this, whoever disagrees with you is a disbeliever, and whoever agrees with you is a believer.
"Your agreement is the measure of Allah's religion, not *** the one who brought the proof and the criterion"
This means that the measure of religion with you is the one who agrees and the one who disagrees. Whoever agrees with you is a believer, and whoever disagrees with you is a disbeliever. You did not make the measure to be the one who brought the proof and the criterion, who is the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). This means you did not refer the matter to Allah and His Messenger, but rather made it based on agreement and disagreement with you.
