Imām Abūl ‘Abbās Ahmad bn ‘Abdul-Halīm bn Taymiyah – Rahimahullāhu
said:
(9). قبحا لمن نبذ القرآن وراءه
وإذا استدل يقول: قال الأخطل
What an ugly act of the one who threw the Qur’an behind his heels!.
Whenever he speaks, he uses Akhtal(a poet) as evidence.
SHAR’H
It is a form of misguidance for one to throw the verses of the glorious Qur’an behind his back, shunning away from it, and never rely on it for evidences. Rather, he relies on the words of Akhtal.
Akhtal is a name of a Christian poet. It is so unfortunate for a servant who believes in Allāh and His Rasūl Salallāhu ‘alayhi wasallam to shun away from Kitāb and Sunnah, but rely on such a Christian poet who is known of his misguidance in his poetry especially in matter that has to do with the attributes of Allāh Ta’āla. Hence, one should be mindful of this act. For we are commanded to follow Allāh and His Rasūl Salallāhu ‘alayhi wasallam not the statement of poet.
Majority of those misguided sects were lured by shaitān through this lens. For they cherish the statement of their Imām over that of Allāh and His Rasūl Salallāhu ‘alayhi wasallam and they see it as a crime to go against their Imams even though the opinion of their Imāms contradicts the Sunnah.
Allāhu A’alām.
Bārakallāhu fīkum.
Jazākumullahu Khayran.
