you are never gonna attain this coz you are simply deceiving our fellow readers who I am sure are now confused as to whether they should do Taqleed or not?
When we discuss Taqleed, then of paramount importance is that we maintain respect for the scholarly efforts of the past giants of Islam in knowledge. Your anti-Taqleed attitude means that you blame them for deceiving the whole Ummah! You yourself claimed that they made a mistake. Why did you edit out al-`Uthaymeen from the opening post? Is this your respect for Islamic scholarship?
Remember A Muslim revert is a person who perform enormous amount of study in Islam and then takes the Shahada and if they read your lame comments, they're only gonna laugh like we are doing always
Enormous amount of study? Ever heard of Abu Bakr and Bilal? A person is given guidance with the Tawfeeq of Allah, not enormous amounts of study, pal. Our religion is for all mankind, and it does not need enormous amount of study for it to manifest itself as the truth. This enormous amount of study you are referring to smacks of the 'Kalami Maturidi' position, thats states one must to Nazar to accept Islam!
You do not worry about our Answers in Grave brother, We are Muslims, isn't it? and we should pray for eachother rather than throwing negative comments out of arrogance.
Yeh look whose talking. We side with the scholars, you sided with the Mu`tazilites of Baghdad. Why are you calling us towards their method? I just don't get it. Why are you defending them?
One thing is for sure, neither you nor we are going to agree upon what Taqleed means, coz we both have different under standing of this word...
You see, that is why I gave you NINE usages of the term Taqleed and their different meanings. When you read a classical text, you need to understand what meaning the author was intending when using the term. Go and read that post again. For example, when Imam al-Shafi`i said that 'only Taqleed of the Prophet is allowed', or you going to say this meaning of Taqleed is Haram too!?
You need to study brother by a Sheikh, not on the Internet and end up copy-pasting other out of blind Taqleed. I think there is a growing consensus that you are doing the worst form of Taqleed by copy-pasting blindly.
You ask questions rather than answering one and rely much of the scholarly Quotes without even verifying it whether they are true or not?
All the quotes are referenced and readily available. Just because you didn't know of them before doesn't mean they don't exist. You should grab on to this new information with both hands, not doubt it. Why are you doing your utmost to cling to your own opinion anyway! If you claim you don't do Taqleed (like a made Mujtahid), the first thing you need is an open mind and a comprehension of what the other side is saying. You don't even possess this.
You have the sense to understand the Scholars sayings whereas you are Stupid to understand Qur'an and Sunnah. Go read more Usul books.. and log off
Once again, you imply that only you are following Kitab and Sunnah and all the scholars of Islam somehow went against it. What type of Islam are you calling new Muslims towards? Your own version? Or the Baghdadi Mu`tazilite version?
and wud appreciate if you could avoid comparing me with those sick Baghdadi Mu`tazilites.
That is the least you deserve, until you withdraw your nonsensical, insulting remarks about the scholars of Islam, regarding whom you said they erred on masse on the matter of Taqleed. As of now, you are an heir of the Baghdadi Mu`tazilite position. Don't think these people didn't exist. Here are two names for you:
Number One
Number Two
They'll be very proud of you.
Thank you so much sister for the great concern, looking forward to here from HH. This is where exactly the confusion is
Damn right it's a good question by the sister. An answer will follow insha'allah. Suffice to say for now:
- Don't think the scholars of Islam didn't talk about this
- Once the answer is given about how a layman deals with weak opinions, you will have no excuse left, except to provide an plausible alternative answer or accept the answer given
