Warning Against Some Errors Narrated in the Story of the Sacrifice of Isma'il (peace be upon him)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, regarding the sermon that passed, regarding placing the knife on Isma'il (peace be upon him), how is that?
The Shaykh : Is it correct? I think it was a slip of the tongue. You mentioned in your sermon that he placed the knife not on his neck, but on his throat. And I think, first, that this is an addition to the Qur'an, because it is not in the Qur'an.

But it is sufficient to say that passing the knife is an addition to the text and did not come in the Sunnah at all. And then, as you explained, may Allah reward you, it is sufficient that he[As-Saffat 37:103-105] merely that he supplicates, and that is the end of the matter...
