Re: Ali and Praying under the influence
Peace bro ravage
First of all the video clip has been posted out of context. Dr. Israr says specifically "is ke pass" which implies as bro TLK suggested that the reason for the ayat to be revealed was because of such and such.
The question to ask however, is not whether Sayyiduna Ali (RA) was too drunk to recite or not, but to ask whether he used to drink at all. What is your belief regarding the consumption of alcohol by the Ahl-al-Bait before the instruction of it's prohibition? Then how does it fit with your understanding of infallibility of certain persons? (May blessings of Allah (SWT) be on them all).
If you claim that despite being drunk Ali (RA) would not have made such a critical error in recitation then are you suggesting that alcohol cannot hinder members of Ahl-al-Bait and if so then why was it made haram for everyone including Ahl-Al-Bait (May Allah (SWT) be pleased with all of them)?
