Summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah From whom should knowledge be received? When the reality of blindness and insight becomes clear And it becomes evident among them who are the insightful and who are the truly blind Then it is not permissible for a Muslim who claims to believe in Allah Almighty and His Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and believes that this Qur'an is a revelation from Allah, to receive guidance on any matter of life from a blind person. Especially if this matter relates to the system that governs human life, or to the values and standards upon which their life is based. And the greatest wonder of all is that among the people today are those who claim to be Muslims, yet they take their life's methodology from so-and-so and so-and-so, from those whom Allah Almighty described as blind.
