Think
about the carriage heights, the carriage heights are the literal
lists. They elevate the transmitted knowledge,
which we elevate to, but they refuse to recognize when their
understanding of a text or when a solitary text or even a Quranic
text
there when there seems to be that the outward meaning of it provides
an internal contradiction. Let me give you an example from a hadith.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, when the sun sets,
it prostrates under the Throne of Allah and takes permission to rise
again.
So let's talk about two things here then.
Number one, when the sun sets, is it moving? We now know that it's
not moving, right?
Let's say hypothetically, it's moving. So it sets then it
prostrates under the Throne of Allah so the Throne of Allah is
underneath us. Impossible is the Throne of Allah underneath us.
It's impossible, right? That the Throne of Allah is underneath us,
because that's what the wording of the means. So let's take a second
point prostrates How does an orb prostrate? Where's the top of an
orb where the bottom of an orb prostration is the top goes down.
That's what prostration means.
Okay. So, we take it that is something that we are allowed to
say is
definitely from is a in a sense in which a Sheva because it's unknown
what it means. And the ultimate say, what we can say from this is
that it's an expression that the sun is in complete submission to
Allah subhanaw taala. Even if you say the orb has its own version of
such as the font animus, but we can't say the Throne of Allah is
under the earth.
Okay, and we clearly have eyes on the sun now. And the sun is not
going up to the Throne of Allah coming down.
So we firstly we don't need to interpret it, but we can say that,
where the sun is what we have knowledge of what we have observed
with our own two eyes, it can be considered in the Tafseer of such
an idea.
Right, but the problem with CO adage and this exists in the
Catholic religion and in the Jewish religion, probably even
worse.
And every child that comes out of the Catholic religion, and you
know, becomes a Muslim, they say, you know, I asked the the nuns in
school
is Jesus, is he God or son of God? Who is he? Who did he worship? And
the nuns is not asking these questions. That's what literalism
is, it's where you refuse to respect the creation of Allah, the
proofs he gave you have observable and rational knowledge, and you
just roughshod over them, this human filter will never accept
that.
Human fitzer will never accept us in itself defeating You're ruining
yourself, you're already ruining your own religion when you do
this. And if you look at the demise of every religion is almost
always preceded by the spread of literal lists. So we take the
Quran literally,
we take it literally.
But we have a concept of motor Chevy heads. And the ultimate have
dealt with this we're not dealing with it the automat have dealt
with it. Then with the Chevy Allah tells us what to shove. It's like
the outward meaning that can't be this, it can't be this because it
contradicts other verses in the Quran that are more widespread.
Right? So then the Allah might have said either just simply
reject the outward meaning of it that is contradictory to other
parts of the book.
And leave it at that. Right? And May and know that it does have a
meaning but not the outward meaning that's the least that we
that we call that 10 Z.
Okay, and that is the position of tough wheat and wheat is tansy.
Himmat tafsir it's 10 Z
to reject sort of Alma Anna and Doheny he these three words sort
of fun man on the head he forwards
okay
sorrowful man on buddy and then relying upon the wheel at the
interpretations
of the self.
The habila Make interpretation of the general reverse.
This is on the my interview with Chuck's use sada he's had been set
up and the ASHA IRA and the Metro de dia will do that we have that
word. They're not interpreting from themselves. They're using the
Arabic language.
In any event, we're not getting into that today, but that was the
that is the reason why literalism leads astray.
And how we are we do take the word of Allah literally
But when it seems to have an internal contradiction that must
be handled, and Allah told us that will happen. They're meant to
shabby heads. He told us this. So it's not not a mystery. And he
said those some people that have crookedness in their hearts, the
hearts are not.
They don't handle the internal contradiction, and they pass that
on to the next generation, and the next generation inherits a
cognitive dissonance as a result.
Then they eventually they leave Islam.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us that shepherds
would become the lead
