Re: Can someone please substantiate/confirm
This is a challenge that my parents always identified to me when they discussed deen/shaykhs…relinquishing your own ability to understand the verses of the quran in favour of a Shaykh whose own words could be left for poetic interpretation…so much room for confusion!
In my own mind the statement from the Shaykh could mean nothing more than this:
If you were of pure heart and mind then you would see huzoor s.a.w. as such and if you were far from the righteous path then you would not see his piety and you would turn away as the kuffar did.
