*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -* - Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

Quraanic Exegesis, Dought&clear, - * Reconciling between the verse “Allah will protect you from the people” and the death of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)

How can we reconcile between the verse “Allah will protect you from the people” i.e., from being killed, and the hadeeth narrated by ‘Aa’ishah in Saheeh al-Bukhaari: “O ‘Aa’ishah, I still feel the pain of the food that I ate in Khaybar, and this time I feel that my aorta is being cut from that poison”?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
The verse in question says (interpretation of the meaning):
“O Messenger (Muhammad )! Proclaim (the Message) which has been sent down to you from your Lord. And if you do not, then you have not conveyed His Message. Allah will protect you from mankind. Verily, Allah guides not the people who disbelieve.”
[al-Maa’idah 5:67].
The hadeeth in question says:
‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to say, during the illness of which he died: “O ‘Aa’ishah, I still feel the pain of the food that I ate in Khaybar, and this time I feel that my aorta is being cut from that poison.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 4165
The “food” was poisoned mutton.
The aorta is an artery connected to the heart; if it is cut, the individual dies.
The original story is as follows
It was narrated from Anas that a Jewish woman brought some poisoned mutton to the Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and he ate some of it. Then she was brought to the Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and he asked her about that. She said: I wanted to kill you. He said: “Allaah would not have given you the power to do that.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2474; Muslim, 2190
Secondly:
The Muslim must understand that there is no contradiction between the texts of the revelation. What some people think, that there are contradictions between the texts of the revelation are only apparent contradictions as it appears to them, but in fact they are not contradictions. Hence the well-versed scholars of Islam are not incapable – by the grace and help of Allah – of reconciling what appears to be a contradiction for those who are unaware of how these texts may be reconciled.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
It is not possible for there to be in Islam two reports that contradict one another in all ways, without one of them being stronger and thus taking precedence.
Al-Musawwadah, 306
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
As for there being two clear saheeh hadeeths that contradict one another in all aspects without one of them abrogating the other, this does not exist in the first place. Allah forbid that such a contradiction should be found be in the words of the most truthful one (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), from whose lips nothing but the truth came.
Zaad al-Ma‘aad, 4/149
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) also said:
Blessings and peace of Allah be upon the one whose words confirmed one another and testified to one another. Any conflict or confusion can only stem from misunderstandings, not from the words of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). What every believer must do is confirm his beliefs in the words of the most truthful one (i.e., the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)), and he should realise that above every man of knowledge, there is someone more knowledgeable.
Miftaah Dar as-Sa‘aadah, 3/383
Ash-Shaatibi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
Anyone who is well versed in the fundamentals of sharee‘ah would realize that the shar‘i texts could hardly contradict one another and anyone who examines the basis of different shar‘i issues would see any confusion therein, because there are no contradictions at all in sharee‘ah. So the one who is well versed in it is aware of the subtle differences between one text and another, he will never find any contradiction. Therefore you can never find two texts that all Muslim scholars agree contradict one another. But because the scholars are not infallible, it is possible that there may be a contradiction between texts in the opinion of some of them.
Al-Muwaafaqaat, 4/294.
There are some scholars who challenged those who claimed that there are contradictions between the texts of the revelation, such as Imam Ibn Khuzaymah (may Allah have mercy on him) who used to say – as we see inTadreeb ar-Raawi, 2/176: I do not know of any two hadeeths that contradict one another; if anyone has two hadeeths that contradict one another, let him bring them to me so that I may reconcile between them.
Thirdly:
With regard to what the questioner mentioned about there being an apparent contradiction between the words of Allah, may He be exalted,“Allah will protect you from mankind”and the words of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), “and this time I feel that my aorta is being cut” and the fact that he died from the poison that the Jews put in his food – there is no contradiction between them, because the protection of which the verse speaks is protection from fitnah and misguidance, and from being killed before having conveyed the message, and all of that was fulfilled for him (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). His Lord, may He be exalted, protected him from all of that and he (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) did not die until after he had conveyed the message of his Lord. Allah, may He be exalted, said (interpretation of the meaning):
“This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion”
[al-Maa’idah 5:3].
Some of the scholars mentioned a subtle meaning here, which is that Allah, may He be exalted, insisted that for our Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), Prophethood and martyrdom should be combined.
Allah, may He be exalted, protected His Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) from the kuffaar of Quraysh when they wanted to kill him in Makkah, and his Lord protected him from being killed in Madinah in the campaigns in which he was present. And even when the Jews attempted to kill him with poison, Allah protected him from that, and the mutton told him that it was poisoned. The Sahaabi who was with him and ate some of it – namely Bishr ibn al-Bara’ ibn Ma‘roor – died but the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) did not die. But this does not contradict the fact that that there was some effect from that poison or his belief that he would die because of it. What he (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said does not mean that the poison was the cause of his death; rather the report indicates that he was feeling it and that that might coincide with the end of his life.
Whatever the case, protection from being killed came before he finished conveying the message of his Lord, and he (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) did not die until he had conveyed it in the most complete manner. The context of the verse indicates that, as his Lord, may He be exalted, instructed him to convey the message and told him that He would protect him from the people.
This idea is also supported by what the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to the Jewish woman: “Allaah would not have given you the power to do that.” That was after she told him that she had wanted to kill him. This is either a statement that refers to his being protected against being killed by poison until he departed this world, or it is a statement indicating that that would not happen before the message was conveyed.
To sum up: it may either be said that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was protected from being killed by the poison – as we shall see below in the words of Ibn Katheer, an-Nawawi and others – and that Allah revealed to him that there was poison in the meat and this was part of His protection of him, or it may be said that the protection was during his conveying of the message of Islam, which does not mean that he could not be killed after the message had been conveyed – as we shall see below in the words of al-Qurtubi, Ibn Hajar and al-‘Uthaymeen – and that through this killing, Allah granted our Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) both Prophethood and martyrdom, and made that a reminder to us of the ongoing enmity of the Jews towards us and our religion.
There follow some of the comments of the scholars on what we have mentioned above, which will explain what we mean, in sha Allah.
1. Ibn Katheer (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
Part of Allah’s protection of His Messenger (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was His protection of him from the people of Makkah and their leaders, those who bore malicious envy towards him, and those who were stubborn, despite the intensity of their enmity and resentment, and their drawing up plans to oppose him night and day, through the means that He created by His decree and wisdom. At the beginning of his mission, He protected him by means of his paternal uncle Abu Taalib, who was an important leader who was obeyed among Quraysh. Allah created in his heart a natural love for the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), not love as ordained by Allah; if he had become Muslim, the kuffaar and their leaders would have had the audacity to harm the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). But because he (Abu Taalib) and they had in common the fact that they were not believers, the kuffaar feared and respected him. But when Abu Taalib died, the mushrikeen caused him some harm, then Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, brought him the Ansaar, who swore allegiance to him as Muslims, who arranged for him to move to their land – namely Madinah. When he joined them, they protected him against the red and the black (i.e., all people). Whenever any of the mushrikeen or people of the Book wanted to do him harm, Allah opposed them and turned their plots against them. When the Jews plotted against him by means of witchcraft, Allah protected him from them and revealed to him the Mi‘wadhatayn (Soorat al-Falaq and an-Naas) as a remedy for this disease. When the Jews poisoned the leg of mutton in Khaybar, Allah informed him of that and protected him from it. And there are many similar cases which it would take too long to mention here.
Tafseer an-Nawawi, 3/154
2. an-Nawawi said, in his commentary on the hadeeth about the poisoned mutton:
This shows how he (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was protected from all the people, as Allah said (interpretation of the meaning):“Allah will protect you from mankind”[al-Maa’idah 5:67]. This is a miracle of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), as he was protected from the poison that killed others, and Allah, may He be exalted, informed him that it was poisoned, and the leg of mutton itself spoke to him. Elsewhere than in Muslim it is narrated that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The leg (of mutton) is informing me that it is poisoned.”
Sharh Muslim, 14/p. 179
3. Ibn al-Jawzi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
With regard to the words of Allah (interpretation of the meaning):“Allah will protect you from mankind”[al-Maa’idah 5:67], Ibn Qutaybah said: That is, He will protect you against them. The protection of Allah means that He prevents him from committing sin.
If it is said: Where is the guarantee of protection when his cheek was cut, his tooth was broken and other kinds of harm reached him? There are two answers to this.
The first is that he was protected against being killed or captured or extensive harm. With regard to regular harm, that was possible.
The second is that this verse was revealed after those things happened to him, because al-Maa’idah is one of the last soorahs to be revealed.
Zaad al-Maseer, 2/397
4. Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
With regard to what befell the Messengers of different kinds of harm, the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was not protected from that; rather some such things did happen to him. He was wounded on the day of Uhud, his helmet was broken on his head, some of the links of chainmail were embedded in his cheek and he fell into one of the holes that were dug there. They also put great pressure on him in Makkah where he encountered some of that which had befallen previous Messengers, that Allah had decreed for him, and Allah raised him thereby in status and multiplied his rewards. But Allah protected him against them and they were not able to kill him or to stop him conveying the message; they did not come between him and what he was obliged to do of conveying the message. He conveyed the message and fulfilled the trust, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him.
Fataawa ash-Shaykh Ibn Baaz, 8/p. 150
5. Al-Qurtubi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
There is nothing in this verse that contradicts the idea that he should take precautions to protect himself, just as the fact that Allah declared that His religion would be victorious and prevail does not contradict the command to fight and make all necessary preparations for the fight.
Al-Mufhim lima Ashkila min Talkhees Kitaab Muslim, 6/280
6. al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) said, after quoting these words of al-Qurtubi:
Based on this, what is meant is protection against fitnah and misguidance, or being killed. And Allah knows best.
Fath al-Baari, 6/82
Fourthly:
Among the practical examples of the Prophet’s being protected from being killed before the message had been conveyed is the following:
It was narrated that Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullah said: We went out on a campaign with the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) in the direction of Najd. The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) caught up with us in a valley where there were a lot of trees. The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) dismounted beneath a tree and hung up his sword of one of its branches, and the people scattered in the valley seeking the shade of the trees. The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “A man came to me whilst I was sleeping and took the sword. I woke up to see him standing over my head and he took me surprise when I saw that the sword was unsheathed in his hand. He said to me: Who will protect you from me? I said: Allah. Then he said a second time: Who will protect you from me? I said: Allah. Then he put the sword back in its sheath, and there he is, still sitting here.” Then the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) did not take the matter any further.
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2753; Muslim, 843
According to another report, he said: O Muhammad, who will protect you from me? The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Allah will protect me from you; put down the sword.” And he put it down.
An-Nawawi said:
This shows that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) put his trust in Allah and that Allah, may He be exalted, protected him from the people, as Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):“Allah will protect you from mankind”[al-Maa’idah 5:67].
Sharh Muslim, 15/44
And Allah knows best.

Quraanic Exegesis, Dought&clear, - * Commentary on the verse “Allah accepts only the repentance of those who do evil in ignorance and foolishness and repent soon afterwards” [an-Nisa’ 4:17]



ShareShare





Does One knowingly indulge into a sin while knowing its against the Orders of Allaah Glory be to him have a chance of his Tawbah to be accepted? Because in chapter 4:17-18 It is stated that Allaah Glory be to him Accepts Repentence of those who do evil in ignorance and soon after Repent. also in 3:135 it is stated that believers are the ones who dont insist on doing a sin knowingly. But Anyone who disobeys Allaah Glory be to him knowingly or unknowingly is ignorant according to Mujahid. and is the term used in 4:17 a general term Jahalah meaning To act ignorantly?.
Praise be to Allaah.
If a person commits sin knowing that he is disobeying Allah and going against His command and exposing himself to punishment, then he repents sincerely, Allah will accept his repentance and forgive him, no matter how great his sin was. Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
If a person repents from sin, Allah will forgive him, whether it was shirk or otherwise, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Say: O ‘Ibaadi (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allaah, verily, Allaah forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful”
[al-Zumar 39:53].
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
If a person repents sincerely, his previous bad deeds will be erased and the reward for his good deeds will be restored for him.
End quote fromal-Waabil as-Sayyib, p. 12
Secondly:
With regard to the words of Allah (interpretation of the meaning):
“Allah accepts only the repentance of those who do evil in ignorance and foolishness and repent soon afterwards; it is they to whom Allah will forgive and Allah is Ever All-Knower, All-Wise”
[an-Nisa’ 4:17],
what is meant by ignorance in this verse is deciding to go ahead and commit an act of disobedience towards Allah; it does not mean that he does not know in the first place that what he is doing is a sin and act of disobedience. In this case, if he repents soon afterwards, Allah will accept his repentance. Everyone who repents before death is regarded as having repented “soon afterwards”. This is by the grace of Allah and His abundant mercy to His slaves.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
Abu’l-‘Aaliyah said: I asked the companions of Muhammad about this verse and they said to me: Everyone who disobeys Allah is ignorant, and everyone who repents before death has repented “soon afterwards”. This was also the view of the majority of commentators.
Mujaahid said: Everyone who disobeys Allah is ignorant at the time of his disobedience. Al-Hasan, Qataadah, ‘Ata’, as-Suddi and others said: They are only called ignorant because of their disobedience, not because they do not have the power of discernment.
Az-Zajjaaj said: The verse does not mean that they are ignorant of it being bad, because if a Muslim does something the nature of which he is unaware of, he is regarded as being like one who did not do anything wrong. Rather what is meant here is one of two things: either they did it when they were not quite aware of its bad consequences or they did it knowingly and were aware that its consequences would be bad, but they preferred immediate worldly gain to the Hereafter, so they were called ignorant because of their preference for a little worldly pleasure over abundant pleasure and eternal well-being (in the Hereafter).
What is meant here is that everyone who disobeys Allah is ignorant, and everyone who fears Him has knowledge.
End quote fromMajmoo‘ al-Fataawa, 7/22
See alsoTafseer Ibn Katheer, 2/235
The scholars of the (Standing) Committee were asked:
I am an old man, fifty-nine years old, and I was afraid when I heard the verse in which Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Allah accepts only the repentance of those who do evil in ignorance and foolishness and repent soon afterwards; it is they to whom Allah will forgive and Allah is Ever All-Knower, All-Wise.
And of no effect is the repentance of those who continue to do evil deeds until death faces one of them and he says: Now I repent”
[an-Nisa’ 4:17-18].
Does committing bad deeds knowing that they are bad prevent one from repenting?
The scholars of the Committee replied:
The fact that a person committed a sin knowing that it was a sin does not prevent him from repenting. There are three conditions for repentance: giving up the sin, regretting what one has done, and resolving not to go back to the sin. If the rights of any human beings were affected, then it is essential to restore them to him or to ask him to let one off. And everyone who disobeys Allah is ignorant.
End quote fromFataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa’imah, 24/308-309
Thirdly:
The verse (interpretation of the meaning):
“And those who, when they have committed Fahishah (illegal sexual intercourse etc.) or wronged themselves with evil, remember Allah and ask forgiveness for their sins; - and none can forgive sins but Allah - and do not persist in what (wrong) they have done, while they know”
[Aal ‘Imraan 3:135]
does not contradict what we have said above. What this verse means is that one of the characteristics of the pious slaves of Allah is that, if they commit any serious major sin or any sin less than that, they hasten to repent and ask for forgiveness, and they remember their Lord and what He has warned the sinners of and what He has promised to the pious; so they ask Him to forgive their sins and conceal their faults, whilst also giving them up and regretting them. Hence He says“and do not persist in what (wrong) they have done, while they know.”
See:Tafseer as-Sa‘di, p. 148
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
If he persists in a minor sin it becomes a major sin, but if he repents from it, he will be forgiven. … If he repents sincerely, his sins will be forgiven. Then if he goes back to the sin, he had to repent again, and if he repents Allah will accept his repentance again.
And Allah knows best.

Commentary on Hadeeth, - Dought & clear, - * Hadeeth about the one who is secure in his property

What is the authenticity of the following hadeeth: the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "When someone is secure in his property, healthy in his body and has his food for the day, it is as if he owned the entire world”.
Praise be to Allaah.
This hadeeth was narrated by Salamah ibn ‘Ubayd-Allaah ibn Mihsan al-Khatmi, from his father, who met the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). He said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The one among you who wakes up secure in his property, healthy in his body and has his food for the day, it is as if the whole world were brought to him.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari inal-Adab al-Mufrad(no. 300) and by al-Tirmidhi inal-Sunan(2346). He said: It is hasan ghareeb.
Shaykh al-Albaani (may Allaah have mercy on him) said, after narrating the hadeeth from a number of the Sahaabah: To sum up, the hadeeth is hasan in sha Allaah, when taking into account the hadeeths of al-Ansaari and Ibn ‘Umar. And Allaah knows best. End quote.Al-Silsilah al-Saheehah(no. 2318).
Al-Mubaarakfoori (may Allaah have mercy on him) said, commenting on this hadeeth:
The words “The one among you who wakes up” means, among you O believers. “Secure” means not fearing an enemy. “In his property (fi sirbihi) means feeling secure within himself; it was also said that it means feeling secure within the group, i.e., within his family and dependents. And it was said that it means on his path or way, or that it means in his house. This was mentioned by al-Qaari quoting from some of the commentators. Al-Turbashti said:
Mu’aafa (translated as healthy) means safe and sound with no illness and sickness.
“In his body” means both outwardly and inwardly. “And has his food for the day” means enough food from halaal sources. “It is as if the whole world were brought to him.”
End quote. Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi(7/11)
Al-Manaawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
The one for whom Allaah has combined the blessings of physical good health, a sense of security wherever he goes and sufficient provision for the day, and kept his family safe, has been given all type of blessings by Allaah, which others may not have in full, so he should not start his day without give thanks for that, by using these blessings in obedience to the One Who bestowed them on him, not in disobedience, or and he should never cease to remember Him.
End quote fromFayd al-Qadeer(6/88)
Abd Allaah knows best.

Commentary on Hadeeth, - Dought & clear, - * Reconciling the hadeeth about al-Jassaasah and the hadeeth “Do you see this night of yours…”

I heard that amongst the signs of the last hour that the Anti-Christ is alive until he comes out, the hadeeth of Tameem Ad-Daari. Another hadeeth of the prophet, peace be upon him, says what means that all those who are alive at that day will die within 100 years. The evidence is that there was no sahabi alive at 110 A.H. My question is how to understand both ahadeeth together? Why did the anti-Christ not die? May Allah protect you and us from his fitnah!.
Praise be to Allaah.
The hadeeth of Tameem al-Daari was narrated by Muslim in hisSaheeh. It has been quoted in full in the answer to question no. 82643.
It indicates that the Dajjaal is alive at present, and was alive at the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and that he will remain detained until permission is given to him to emerge. This does not contradict what is narrated inal-Saheehaynfrom ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him), who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) led us in ‘Isha’ prayer one night at the end of his life, then when he had said the salaam he stood up and said: “Have you seen this night of yours? One hundred years from now, there will no one left who is on the face of the earth.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (116) and Muslim (2537).
This hadeeth is general in meaning and the hadeeth of Tameem is specific, therefore it is exempted from the general meaning of the hadeeth of Ibn ‘Umar; or the Dajjaal at that time was in the sea and not on land, so he was not included in the hadeeth of Ibn ‘Umar.
Al-‘Allaamah Muhammad al-Ameen al-Shanqeeti (may Allaah have mercy on him) said inAdwa’ al-Bayaan(3/397), responding to those who said that al-Khidr is still alive on the basis that the general meaning of the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) does not include absolutely everyone, i.e., the words “there will no one left who is on the face of the earth”: Because the hadeeth about the emergence of the Dajjaal is a sound hadeeth, and that means that the Dajjaal is exempted from the general meaning of the hadeeth of Ibn ‘Umar. It is a hadeeth that is proven inal-Saheeh, from the words of Faatimah bint Qays (may Allaah be pleased with her), who heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say that Tameem al-Daari spoke to him, and that he liked what Tameem al-Daari told him, because it was in accordance with what he was telling his companions about the Dajjaal. Then he quoted the hadeeth of Tameem. Then he said:
This clearly states that the Dajjaal is alive on that island in the sea that is mentioned in the hadeeth of Tameem al-Daari, and that he will remain alive until he emerges at the end of time. This is a text which is specific in meaning and excludes the Dajjaal from the general meaning of the hadeeth which says that everyone would die within the next century. The established principle in usool is that the general meaning should be taken as such, and that whatever is excluded from it on the basis of a specific text is excluded from the general meaning, but the general meaning still remains applicable to all individuals for whom there is no evidence that they are excluded. As we have stated several times previously, this is the truth and is the view of the majority, and it applies to most of what is in the Qur’aan and Sunnah of general matters from which a few individuals are excluded on the basis of a specific text, but the general meaning remains applicable to the rest. End quote.
And Allaah knows best.
