Re: NONE of us
Couldn’t have said it better. Well said brother.
Lets not believe everything the dentist says (like a Zombie). You have a brain. Lets just pick up the books, read it ourself and then decide what to do with our teeth… and so on for our eyes, ears, stomach…etc. A (good) Aalim spends his whole life learning and teaching Quran + Hadith, but for us it doesn’t matter. What a pity.
One shouldn’t believe an Aalim blindly but at least one should consult different Aalims in order to come up to a good decision, while oneself also read Quran and Hadith. To try to correct them/proving them wrong with one’s own study of Quran + Hadith is ridiculous, just like it is in case of dealing with an experienced Doctor, engineer,…etc. They have been thinking over different aspects of it, co-relating it with practical examples and other perspectives, for years.
