The Shaykh : This is a good point. They say, how do they claim it is outside the original principle, when it is the Prophet, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who ruled with it, and the ruling of the Messenger is the original principle?
They mean, Salim, that it is outside the general rule regarding claims, not that it is rejected. It is accepted, without doubt. But they say it is outside the original principle in claims. The original principle in claims is that the proof lies with the claimant and the oath with the one who denies. They do not mean that we do not accept it or that we say it is anomalous, for the ruling of Allah and His Messenger is the original principle. We say that the correct view is that it follows the original principle, even the original principle of claims. Yes.
