The Shaykh :"Allah has created the servants with the capacity for mutual understanding through speech for the purpose of clarification"
People are created with the capacity for mutual understanding so that they can express what is in their hearts. By what means? By the means of mutual understanding through speech.
"Each one indicates what is in himself through his speech, from the people of every tongue"
You do not know what is in my heart except by what I express, and I do not know what is in your heart except by what you express. So the one who expresses wants to indicate to people what is in his heart.
"Each one indicates what is in himself through his speech, from the people of every tongue
So you see the one addressed is certain of his intent, this despite the deficiency in man"
The one addressed, the speaker, when he speaks, is certain of his intent, meaning: he knows what he intended and is certain of it, and he has no doubt about it. It is also possible that the meaning is: so you see the one addressed is certain of the intent of the speaker. This is despite the deficiency in man. Both meanings are correct. The speaker is certain of his intent and wants the meaning he is saying, if he is of sound mind. The one addressed is also sometimes certain of the intent of the speaker, even though man is deficient. Deficient in what? Deficient in understanding, if we are speaking of the one addressed. Deficient in expression, if we are speaking of the one who speaks. The speaker is deficient in expression and may not be able to express what is in his heart. The one addressed is deficient in understanding and may not be able to understand the speech of the speaker. And yet, the one who speaks and the one addressed are certain of the intent of the speaker.
"For every word other than the word of our Prophet is below it in this, without denial"
True, may Allah have mercy on him. All the speech of the people is below the speech of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the most eloquent of creation without dispute.
