And as for reason, we say: The detailed statement regarding what is obligatory, impossible, or permissible with regard to Allah the Exalted, concerning matters of the unseen that cannot be grasped by reason,
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And as for reason" We are completing this because the rest of what he said is: "And as for reason, we say: The detailed statement regarding what is obligatory, impossible, or permissible with regard to Allah the Exalted, concerning matters of the unseen that cannot be grasped by reason, necessitates referring to what has come in the Book and the Sunnah" This is correct. Look, the detailed statement regarding what is obligatory, because the issue contains generalization and detail. In terms of generalization, reason believes that every perfection is affirmed for Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and every deficiency is negated from Him. But in terms of detail, one cannot guide oneself to this; rather, a transmitted legal proof is required to support it. Otherwise, some of the attributes of Allah are indicated by reason with certainty. Have you seen the statement of Ibrahim to his father: [Maryam 19:42] But in terms of detail, you cannot know; Allah knows best where?
The student: "And that faith in the Messenger whom the Qur'an commanded".
The Shaykh : Yes, no, no, I did not intend to mislead, but if we make "which" a relative pronoun describing faith, the ambiguity is removed. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you. If we say that negating direction?
The Shaykh : If we say.
O my father, why do you worship that which does not hear and does not see and will not benefit you at all?
يا أبت لم تعبد ما لا يسمع ولا يبصر ولا يغني عنك شيئاThe student: "And that faith in the Messenger whom the Qur'an commanded".
The Shaykh : Yes, no, no, I did not intend to mislead, but if we make "which" a relative pronoun describing faith, the ambiguity is removed. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you. If we say that negating direction?
The Shaykh : If we say.
