The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : Divine inspiration?
The Shaykh : Divine inspiration is that which is not of a high rank, meaning when it is appropriate to say that it was revealed to him, as Allah the Exalted said:
And your Lord inspired to the bee وأوحى ربك إلى النحل
"He inspired it." The root of inspiration in the language is informing quickly and secretly; this is its origin in the language. So, if Allah inspired, for example, this path which is the bee, it does not mean that He sent Jibril to reveal it to it, but rather He gave it understanding and inspired it with its benefits.
