And judge, may Allah guide you, with a judgment that the clear intellect testifies to along with the Qur'an (Clarifying that the clear intellect is free from desires and doubts)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And judge, may Allah guide you, with a judgment that the clear intellect testifies to from the Qur'an"
And with what? With means that the intellect and the hearing testify to it.
And his saying: "the clear intellect" is something we always hear in the words of Ibn al-Qayyim, the Shaykh al-Islam (may Allah have mercy on him). The meaning of the clear intellect is that which is safe from doubts and desires. This clear intellect is taken from the concept of clear water or clear milk that has not been mixed with anything; it is that which is safe from doubts and desires. The source of doubts is ignorance, and the source of desires is inclination accompanied by knowledge, because the defects of intellects are either ignorance of the truth or an inclination that rejects the truth. If you reflect on all misguidance, you will find that it does not go beyond this. What is the affliction of the Christians? Doubts or desires? Here, doubts, but only after they had known the truth. And the Jews? Their affliction is desires; their affliction is desires. So, the clear intellect is that which is safe from these doubts and desires, along with the Qur'an, which is the evidence of the hearing.
