The questioner : May Allah reward you, O Shaykh: What is the correct view regarding metaphor in language and the Qur'an?
The Shaykh : In what?
The questioner : Metaphor in language and the Qur'an.
The Shaykh : O man, this is only suitable for a lecture in a study class, and the disagreement on this matter is long and extensive. This is the place for questions regarding Hajj only, and there are no questions now. Now Musa is pointing to me, indicating that the time is over, and we say: It is over. Glory be to You, O Allah, and praise be to You. I bear witness that there is no deity but You. I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance.
