The Response to Those Who Deny the Seeing of Allah in Paradise from the Sunnah and That It Is Mutawatir
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : As for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he clarified this with the clearest and most explicit statement. The hadiths from him regarding this matter—I do not say they are numerous, nor do I say they are famous; rather, I say they are mutawatir. The hadiths regarding the seeing of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) on the Day of Resurrection are mutawatir. And the mutawatir, according to the scholars of hadith, establishes what? Certain knowledge. Here are two verses mentioning some of the mutawatir. Who has them memorized? Please.
The student: "Among the mutawatir is the hadith of the liar *** and of the one who built a house for Allah and sought reward" and the Hawd and intercession...
The Shaykh : No, and the seeing. "And the seeing of intercession".
The student: "And the seeing of intercession and the Hawd *** and wiping over the leather socks, and these are some"
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you. Good. I will say it now and test you in its memorization:
"Among the mutawatir is the hadith of the liar *** and of the one who built a house for Allah and sought reward
And seeing the Intercession and the Pond *** And wiping over two socks, and this is a part "
"Among the mutawatir is the hadith of the liar *** and of the one who built a house for Allah and sought reward
And seeing the Intercession and the Pond *** And wiping over two socks, and this is a part "
Twice, the third time
"Among the mutawatir is the hadith of the liar *** and of the one who built a house for Allah and sought reward
And the seeing of intercession and the Hawd *** and wiping over the leather socks, and these are some"
Brother, have you memorized it?
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : I speak in Arabic; I do not know anything but Arabic.
The student: "Among the mutawatir is the hadith of the liar *** and of the one who built a house for Allah and sought reward
And the seeing of intercession".
The Shaykh : And the Hawd and wiping over the leather socks, and these are some "May Allah bless you. Good. Now we need another one.
The student: " Among the mutawatir is the hadith of the liar *** and of the one who built a house for Allah and sought reward
And the seeing of intercession and the Hawd *** and wiping over the leather socks, and these are some".
The Shaykh : You have done well, may Allah reward you. The point from these two verses is his saying: " and the vision." Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned these two. So, the vision is established by the Qur'an, and what else? By the Sunnah and the consensus of the Companions. How do we know of their consensus? This is what I will say, if Allah wills; take this as a rule.
