Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
"Woe to those minds, for indeed *** By Allah, they have been transformed upon the bodies"
And he spoke the truth (may Allah have mercy on him), meaning hearts, but they are transformed. How can a scholar dare to say this regarding Allah or regarding the servants of Allah? Even the people of the Hellfire who are being tortured by the fire; when the whip is raised to strike them, the movements stop, and they stand still, and so on. Worse than this—would that they were satisfied with these feeble minds, but
"Woe to the one who has come to prefer them over *** the athar, the reports, and the Qur'an" The athar transmitted from the Companions and the Successors, and the reports transmitted from whom? From the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Qur'an. This is a descent from, this is an ascent from the lower to the higher. They lied about the athar, the reports, and the Qur'an, and they said that we judge by what? By the minds. Yes.
