Sharh as-Sunnah : Lesson 69 : Point 116
Shaykh Fawzan | Dawud Burbank [Audio|English]

Imaam Barbahaaree rahimahullaah said:

Beware of looking into rhetorical theology (kalaam) and sitting with the people of rhetorical theology (kalaam) [1].

NOTES

[1] It is reported that Imaam ash-Shaafi’ee (rahimahullah) said,

“My ruling regarding the people of theological rhetoric is that they should be beaten with palm branches and shoes and led around the markets an it (should) be said: This is the punishment of those who have abandoned the Book and the Sunnah and taken to theological rhetoric.”

Reported by al-Baghaawee in Sharh as-Sunnah (1/218).

Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) said,

“A person of theological rhetoric will never succeed. The scholars of theological rhetoric are wicked heretics.”

Reported by Ibn al-Jawzee in Manaaqib Ahmad (p204).
