Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He said:
"And indeed, fifty in ten of the scholars in the lands assumed their disbelief"
May Allah help us. Fifty in ten, how much is that? Five hundred scholars assumed this view. But also, from five hundred scholars, five hundred were generated from each scholar, and the school of the Mu'tazilah became widespread, to the point that some people used to call them the "intellectuals," while they were actually the ignorant ones, as the Shaykh al-Islam (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "They were given intelligence, but they were not given piety" Yes, alas.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Al-Lalika'i reported it from them, and in fact al-Tabarani reported it before him. This is found in *al-Sunnah* by al-Lalika'i and also in al-Tabarani's *Sunan*. Yes.
The student : ... the translation?
The Shaykh : Yes, the translation, well done, I forgot it. Who is translating?
The student : Each one has three.
The Shaykh : Each one has three? Yes, indeed, you have two and the first one has one, yes.
The student : Jahm ...
The Shaykh : Yes, Jahm.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : And al-Hasan al-Basri. Al-Hasan al-Basri, let's find one after him, two after him.
The student: The Karramiyyah.
The Shaykh : The Karramiyyah.
