Summary of the concepts of the People of the Sunnah

00:00:09.250 --> 00:00:13.250
Impossibilities of the intellect vs. perplexities of the intellect

00:00:13.250 --> 00:00:19.399
A distinction must be made between that which the intellect knows to be false and impossible,

00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:23.399
and that which the intellect is incapable of conceiving and comprehending.

00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:26.429
The former belongs to the impossibilities of the intellect,

00:00:26.429 --> 00:00:29.429
meaning that which the intellect deems impossible to occur.

00:00:29.429 --> 00:00:33.429
The latter belongs to the perplexities of the intellect,

00:00:33.429 --> 00:00:37.460
meaning that in whose comprehension the intellect is left bewildered.

00:00:37.460 --> 00:00:41.460
Thus, revelation and the messengers may give news of unseen matters

00:00:41.460 --> 00:00:44.460
in whose comprehension intellects are left bewildered,

00:00:44.460 --> 00:00:47.460
such as the affairs of the Last Day, Paradise, Hellfire,

00:00:47.460 --> 00:00:51.460
the punishment of the grave, and so forth.

00:00:51.460 --> 00:00:54.460
As for that which the intellect deems impossible to occur,

00:00:54.460 --> 00:00:58.460
none advocate it except mendacious impostors

00:00:58.460 --> 00:01:02.140
and those of corrupt intellects.

00:01:02.140 --> 00:01:05.140
