Explanation of the author's statement: "And they prefer the speech of Allah over the speech of other categories of people, and they prioritize the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over the guidance of everyone else"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : All right, he said: "And they prefer the speech of Allah over the speech of other categories of people":
"They prefer" means: they prioritize.
"The speech of Allah over the speech of others": from all other categories of people, in terms of news and rulings. So, the news of Allah is prioritized by them over the news of anyone else.
So, if we are presented with Israelite reports about past nations, and the Qur'an refutes them, then we refute them.
An example of this is that it is well-known among many historians, among the historians, that Idris was before Noah, that Idris (peace be upon him) was before Noah. This is a lie; Idris was not before Noah, because the Qur'an refutes it:[An-Nisa 4:163] And Idris is among the prophets, as Allah the Exalted said: [Maryam 19:56-57] until He said: [Maryam 19:58] So, this is a lie, because the speech of Allah is more truthful than this speech. And He the Exalted said: [Al-Hadid 57:26] in their descendants. So, no one was a prophet before Noah except Adam alone. But Idris is among the messengers, so they prioritize the speech of Allah over the speech of others, over the speech of other categories of people.
"And they prioritize the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over the guidance of everyone else": His guidance means: his method and his Sunnah upon which he was.
"Over the guidance of everyone else": All right, in acts of worship, in morals, in transactions, in states, in everything. All right, if they prioritize the speech of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) over everyone else in acts of worship, but in transactions they adopt the systems of so-and-so and so-and-so, are they from the people of the Sunnah and the community? Absolutely not, they are not from the people of the Sunnah and the community, and in fact, they are not even from the Muslims, let alone being from the people of the Sunnah and the community. Because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) arranged the conditions and affairs of his Ummah from A to Z, and there is no room left for anyone to intrude upon this Shari'ah. Yes, all right.

Indeed, We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], as We revealed to Noah and the prophets after him
إِنَّا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ كَمَا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى نُوحٍ وَالنَّبِيِّينَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ(56) And mention in the Book, Idrees. Indeed, he was a man of truth and a prophet. (57) And We raised him to a high station.
وَاذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتَابِ إِدْرِيسَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ صِدِّيقًا نَبِيًّا ورفعناه مكانا عليًّاThose were the ones upon whom Allah bestowed favor from among the prophets of the descendants of Adam and of those We carried [in the ship] with Noah
أُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّينَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ آدَمَ وَمِمَّنْ حَمَلْنَا مَعَ نُوحٍAnd We have already sent Noah and Abraham and placed in their descendants prophethood and scripture
وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا وَإِبْرَاهِيمَ وَجَعَلْنَا فِي ذُرِّيَّتِهِمَا النُّبُوَّةَ وَالْكِتَابَ"And they prioritize the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over the guidance of everyone else": His guidance means: his method and his Sunnah upon which he was.
