Is the scholars' disagreement in understanding the text a type of diversity?

The questioner : Shaykh, regarding the scholars' disagreement on some texts, where some scholars give an understanding that differs from another scholar's?

The Shaykh : I do not know if it is possible to reconcile the two opinions. If the understanding is a matter of diversity, for example, some scholars said regarding the saying of Allah the Exalted: meaning it turned away, and others said meaning it approached. There is no contradiction in this, so it is a disagreement of diversity. If the two opinions cannot be reconciled, such as: some said the intended meaning of al-qur' is menstruation, and some said the intended meaning of al-qur' is purity. This cannot be reconciled, so this is a disagreement of contradiction. Likewise, the Hanafis said that the time of 'Asr begins when the shadow of every object becomes twice its length, and others said that the time of 'Asr ends when the shadow of every object becomes twice its length. This cannot be reconciled; this is a disagreement of contradiction. This "dha" (referring to the letter in the word for contradiction), yes.
