The Shaykh Al-Albani's opinion on the book *In the Shade of the Qur'an* and the book *Why Was I Executed?* by Sayyid Qutb
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The student: There is the other joke I want to mention regarding some gatherings attended by the aforementioned brother. He said, meaning, what is the legal basis from which we proceed in permitting this parliament? Then he mentioned the book by Muhammad Qutb. Gradually. The biography of Qutb. This word, Qutb, when it is mentioned in the gathering, Qutb, Qutb.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The student: And he also mentioned Sayyid Qutb, meaning in his book, that these parliaments are not permissible. So they threw at him that he is a Saudi and receives riyals, and so on. So I said to him, and the joke and the quip came from our brother Abu 'Abd al-Rahman here, that we should listen to the fatwa of Muhammad Nasir al-Din al-Albani, heh heh.
The Shaykh: Heh heh, but the Qutb who died in the path of Allah, if Allah wills, what do they say about him? He too was taking money from Saudi Arabia.
The student: They did not read his book well. Only that every person.
The Shaykh: I mean, the truth is, Sayyid Qutb (may Allah have mercy on him) has writings in prison as if he were a Salafi.
The student: As if he were a Salafi, yes, but they have "In the Shade of the Qur'an" in form. Every Muslim Brotherhood member has "In the Shade of the Qur'an" in his library.
The Shaykh: "In the Shade of the Qur'an" is not beneficial, meaning in terms of 'aqidah. But the principles he established in prison and published, I think in "Why what?"
The questioner: "Why Was I Executed?"
The Shaykh: "Why Was I Executed?" Yes, he has wonderful writings, what do you say, Abu 'Abd al-Rahman?
The Shaykh: Yes.
