[25] Notification to Ahlul Bidah and The Mumayyi’ah: These Clarifications Are Coming Back!
In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.
Allah, The Most high, said:
وَعَلَى اللَّهِ قَصْدُ السَّبِيلِ وَمِنْهَا جَائِرٌ
And upon Allah is the responsibility to explain the Straight Path but there are ways that turn aside.’’ [16:9]
وَعَلَى اللَّهِ قَصْدُ السَّبِيلِ
“And upon Allah is the responsibility to explain the Straight Path”.
Az-Zujaaj, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:
It is Allah who will clarify the straight path and call to it with Hujaj [i.e. clear and overwhelming proofs that defeats all the obstinate and stubborn ones] and Burhan [i.e. proofs that clarify and distinguish between truth and falsehood in everything].
وَمِنْهَا جَائِر
“but there are ways that turn aside”
Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him and his father, said:
“They are the different types of (vain) desires”.
Ibn Al-Mubarak, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:
“They are the (vain) desires and the innovations in religion”.
