(That the followers of the Messenger have enemies, just as the Messenger had enemies, and an explanation that enemies are of two types: the pure disbelievers and the hypocrites) The Messenger must be inherited
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"The Messenger must be inherited, and his opposite must be inherited *** Among the people are two differing groups"
Correct. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) has enemies, and the inheritors of the Messenger must have enemies, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was not opposed for his person, but rather for his Shari'ah. So whoever holds fast to his Shari'ah will find enemies for him, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) found enemies for him. He says:
"The Messenger must be inherited, and his opposite must be inherited *** Among the people are two differing groups
So the inheritors of him are upon his methodology *** And the inheritors of his opposite are two factions"
The inheritors of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and I ask Allah to make me and you among them, are upon his methodology, not deviating from it. The inheritors of his opposite are two factions
"One of them is at war with him and his party *** They have no concealment in that"
And they are the pure disbelievers who declare disbelief openly. These are at war with the Messenger and his party, declaring it openly, with no concealment in that.
"So they threw at him from their titles great things *** They are the people of them, not the choice of the Most Merciful
So those who inherited them came"
Good. "They threw at him" means they threw at the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) from their titles great things. And what did they say? Sorcerer, madman, poet, soothsayer, yes, and liar. They are the people of them, not the choice of the Most Merciful
"So those who inherited them came and threw with them *** His inheritors with tyranny and aggression"
Those who inherited the disbelievers threw these great things at whom? The inheritors of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who are his followers.
"This clarifies the inheritance of each of them *** So listen and take heed, O you who have two ears".
