Creed between reason and revelation.
0:11
Sound reason must necessarily align with authentic revelation.
0:17
The Noble Qur'an and the authentic Sunnah.
0:21
For two definitive proofs can never contradict one another.
0:24
If a contradiction appears between reason and revelation,
0:28
then either the reasoning is flawed and not sound,
0:32
or the transmitted text is not authentic.
0:35
When a contradiction is perceived, revelation takes precedence.
0:39
It is mandatory to believe in what revelation establishes,
0:42
even if the intellect is bewildered in its understanding.
0:45
For creed may indeed contain matters that baffle the intellect,
0:49
yet it never contains anything that the intellect deems impossible.
0:53
Nothing from the Book or the authentic Sunnah is contradicted,
0:57
even if it pertains to solitary hadiths,
1:00
by reason, analogy,
1:02
spiritual intuition, or mystical unveiling,
1:04
nor by the statement of any sheikh or imam,
1:07
or anything of that nature.
