6 - Explanation of the manner of the Prophet - peace and blessings be upon him - in acting upon and embodying what he was commanded with in the Mighty Quran.

And in short,

indeed,

the examples of guidance are numerous in the exegesis of the Companions - may Allah be pleased with them -.

The method of correct guidance:

And it is not possible to fulfill the right of guidance for difficult places

until he clarifies the aspect of difficulty and its cause with a satisfying explanation,

then he elaborates on solving and facilitating it,

then that speech is weighed with a just weight.

[The extremism of the theologians:]

And as for the extremism of the theologians regarding what pertains to the interpretation of ambiguous texts,

and the explanation of the reality of the attributes of Allah - the Mighty and Majestic -

this is not from my school of thought,

rather my school is the school of Malik, Al-Thawri, Ibn Al-Mubarak, and the rest of the early predecessors,

and it is passing on the ambiguous texts upon their apparent meanings and leaving off delving into their interpretation.

As for the dispute and argumentation in rulings and opinions derived from them,

and each faction establishing its school of thought,

and its rejection of the school of others,

and resorting to stratagems to push away the Quranic evidences,

all of that is not permissible according to me,

and I fear that this might be from the category of disputing using the Quran.

It is obligatory to hold fast to the meaning of the verse:

And it is obligatory upon the seeker of the sciences of the Quran to search into the meaning of the verse.
