Summary of Sunni concepts

00:00:09.060 --> 00:00:15.060
The error of both philosophers and theologians regarding the issue of prophecies

00:00:15.060 --> 00:00:21.300
Prophecy, as we mentioned earlier, is divine revelation to humans

00:00:21.300 --> 00:00:25.300
There were two groups on this issue

00:00:25.300 --> 00:00:28.300
Firstly, the philosophers

00:00:28.300 --> 00:00:31.300
Where prophecy was made an acquired matter

00:00:31.300 --> 00:00:36.299
A person achieves it by working hard, taming himself, and contemplating a lot

00:00:36.299 --> 00:00:41.429
They ruled that it is impossible for any human being to receive revelation from God

00:00:41.429 --> 00:00:44.429
Secondly, the speakers

00:00:44.429 --> 00:00:48.429
They wanted to refute the philosophers' claim of abstract reason

00:00:48.429 --> 00:00:53.429
In their usual way of presenting reason over text

00:00:53.429 --> 00:00:57.429
They started from their three-fold division of mentalities

00:00:57.429 --> 00:01:03.429
The rationally obligatory, the rationally impossible, and the rationally permissible

00:01:03.429 --> 00:01:08.590
If philosophers have made prophecy meaning revelation

00:01:08.590 --> 00:01:11.590
From the section of the mental impossible

00:01:11.590 --> 00:01:15.590
The Mu'tazilites included it in the category of rational duty

00:01:15.590 --> 00:01:19.590
The Ash'aris made it a part of the category of rational permissibility

00:01:19.590 --> 00:01:23.659
The reason for their misguidance is in the issue of prophecies

00:01:23.659 --> 00:01:28.819
It is their introduction of reason to the text and its arbitration over it

00:01:28.819 --> 00:01:32.819
The final say is that prophecy, while permissible, is rational

00:01:32.819 --> 00:01:36.819
What we have mentioned above indicates this

00:01:36.819 --> 00:01:40.819
In the good conduct of the Prophet and his worship of his Lord

00:01:40.819 --> 00:01:43.819
And consider the sincerity of the miracle that was with him

00:01:43.819 --> 00:01:46.819
And God supported him with it

00:01:46.819 --> 00:01:51.549
