The Meaning of the Poet's Statement: (Clarifying the Diversity of Evidence into Transmitted, Rational, and Sensory) Leave this, has not Allah revealed to us *** the truth of the evidence, and it is in the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Very well.
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
"Leave this, has not Allah revealed to us *** the truth of the evidence, and it is in the Qur'an
Diverse, varied, and corroborated *** in every aspect, so it has many branches
known to the mind or witnessed *** by the senses or in the fitrah (the innate natural disposition) of the Most Merciful
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Leave this view or this argumentation, and I ask you: Has Allah revealed to us the truth of the evidence? Because the interrogative in his statement "Has not Allah" is for affirmation, and the answer is: Yes, Allah has shown us the evidence in various forms: rational, sensory, and fitrah-based. Therefore, the evidence in the Qur'an sometimes refers to the intellect, sometimes refers to the observed senses, and sometimes refers to the fitrah.
For example, regarding the resurrection, Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) referred to the actual, observed reality, and He said (Glorified and Exalted is He) in Surat Fussilat, rather, He informed that He sends down water upon the dead, humbled earth, and then it becomes alive:[Fussilat 41:39] This is sensory evidence that we observe.
Rational evidence is the statement of Allah the Exalted:[Qaf 50:15] meaning, are we incapable of the first creation? If we are not incapable, then the second creation is even more likely, as He said the Exalted: .
As for the fitrah, a person is created with a fitrah that knows his Lord (Glorified and Exalted is He), as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:.

And of His signs is that you see the earth stilled, but when We send down upon it rain, it quivers and grows. Indeed, He who has given it life is the Giver of Life to the dead. Indeed, He is over all things competent.
ومن آياته أنك ترى الأرض خاشعة فإذا أنزلنا عليها الماء اهتزت وربت إن الذي أحياها لمحي الموتى إنه على كل شيء قديرRational evidence is the statement of Allah the Exalted:
Did We fail in the first creation? But they are in confusion over a new creation.
أفعيينا بالخلق الأول بل هم في لبس من خلق جديدAnd He is the One who begins the creation and then returns it, and that is easier for Him
وهو الذي يبدأ الخلق ثم ييعده وهو أهون عليهAs for the fitrah, a person is created with a fitrah that knows his Lord (Glorified and Exalted is He), as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
