The questioner : You mentioned in other places that this hadith is sufficient for the common people in the matter of faith, so should they know its details to the extent that they know the levels of divine decree?
The Shaykh : No, they do not need to. The common people say, when it is established that good and evil are from Him: "Everything is from Allah. The rain is from Allah, the drought is from Allah, the good fruits are from Allah, and so on." That is, you mention to him the generalities, because the common person does not grasp the details. This is one reason. And because if he enters into the details, he may enter a sea that drowns him, where Satan generates doubts and whispers that he cannot withstand.
