The Shaykh : The conclusion is very important because it contains the ruling on these people of figurative interpretation who deny the divine attributes.
He says: "If someone says: We have known the invalidity of the methodology of the people of figurative interpretation in the chapter of attributes, and it is known that the Asha'irah are among the people of figurative interpretation, how can their methodology be invalid when it is said that they represent ninety-five percent today?"
Listen now, some people claim that the Asha'irah represent ninety-five percent of Muslims, and what remains for the other sects? Five percent. This is an unacceptable claim, but nevertheless, we will answer it, if Allah wills.
How can their methodology be invalid when it is said that they represent ninety-five percent today?
And how can it be invalid when their role model in that is Abu al-Hasan al-Ash'ari?
And how can it be invalid when among them are so-and-so and so-and-so, scholars known for their sincere advice to Allah, His Book, His Messenger, the leaders of the Muslims, and the general public?"
The last point is the most important thing regarding the Asha'irah: those who are known for their sincere advice to Allah, His Book, His Messenger, the leaders of the Muslims, and the general public, and who have many beneficial writings indicating that Allah has accepted them.
