Summary of Sunni concepts
The error of both philosophers and theologians regarding the issue of prophecies
Prophecy, as we mentioned earlier, is divine revelation to humans
There were two groups on this issue
Firstly, the philosophers
Where prophecy was made an acquired matter
A person achieves it by working hard, taming himself, and contemplating a lot
They ruled that it is impossible for any human being to receive revelation from God
Secondly, the speakers
They wanted to refute the philosophers' claim of abstract reason
In their usual way of presenting reason over text
They started from their three-fold division of mentalities
The rationally obligatory, the rationally impossible, and the rationally permissible
If philosophers have made prophecy meaning revelation
From the section of the mental impossible
The Mu'tazilites included it in the category of rational duty
The Ash'aris made it a part of the category of rational permissibility
The reason for their misguidance is in the issue of prophecies
It is their introduction of reason to the text and its arbitration over it
The final say is that prophecy, while permissible, is rational
What we have mentioned above indicates this
In the good conduct of the Prophet and his worship of his Lord
And consider the sincerity of the miracle that was with him
And God supported him with it
