(Explanation that the enmity of the people of innovation toward the people of hadith is for a worldly purpose) O you who oppose them for the sake of food *** and positions and the leadership of the brothers, may that enmity be a blessing for you
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"O you who oppose them for the sake of food ***"
The student: ...
The Shaykh : That is all, we have said it.
"O you who oppose them for the sake of food *** and positions and the leadership of the brothers"
It means: that these people who opposed the people of affirmation (al-ithbat) have motives, either food, or positions with those in authority, or the leadership of the brothers. One becomes a respected leader among his people, and he fears that if he turns to affirmation, his people will oppose him. He says:
"May that enmity be a blessing for you. How much *** regret, humiliation, and lowliness it contains"
But when? He said:
"And you will surely reap its bitter fruit, by Allah, *** soon, and you will remember the truth of the one who has faith"
When will this happen? When he dies and sees that he is upon nothing. At that time, he will have reaped the bitter fruit of what he went to, which is the denial of the divine attributes of Allah (Mighty and Majestic).
