Make things easy, Muslims! (Part 1c)

Following on from Part 1b, it is a good time to expound on the other Verses of our Lord cited for aid in understanding and following.

The Prophet of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wasallam, said:

1. "Whoever says anything about the Quran without knowledge, then he should take his abode (home) in hell" (Sunan Abu Dawud)

2. "Whoever talks about the Quran on the basis of his opinion, and even if he says something true in it, he has made a mistake" (Sunan Abu Dawud, Sunan an-Nasa'i)

Translated Verse from Quran

2. "And follow not ( i.e., say not or do not or witness not) what you have no knowledge of. Indeed the hearing, sight and the heart, one will be questioned of all of those" [Surah al Israa 17:36]

Do not speak without Knowledge

'Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Abdullah ibn 'Abbas (Companion of Prophet) said: "This means do not say (anything of which you have no knowledge).''
Al-'Awfi said: "Do not accuse anyone of that of which you have no knowledge.'' Muhammad bin Al-Hanafiyyah said: "It means bearing false witness.''
Qatadah said: "Do not say: 'I have seen', when you did not see anything, or: 'I have heard', when you did not hear anything, or: 'I know', when you do not know; for Allah will ask you about all of that.''

In conclusion, what they said means that Allah forbids speaking without knowledge and only on the basis of suspicion, which is mere imagination and illusions. As Allah says (as translated):
(Avoid much suspicion; indeed some suspicions are sins.) [49:12]

According to a Hadith, the Prophet said:

«إِيَّاكُمْ وَالظَّنَّنَفَإِنَّ الظَّنَّ أَكْذَبُ الْحَدِيث»
(Beware of suspicion, for suspicion is the falsest of speech.)

And the Prophet said, as found in Sunan Abu Dawud:

«بِئْسَ مَطِيَّةُ الرَّجُلِ: زَعَمُوا»
(What an evil habit it is for a man to say: 'They claimed...')

According to another Hadith, the Prophet said:

«إِنَّ أَفْرَى الْفِرَى أَنْ يُرِيَ الرَّجُلُ عَيْنَيْهِ مَا لَمْ تَرَيَا»
(The worst of lies is for a man to claim to have seen something that he has not seen.)

The Prophet says as reported in Saheeh:

«مَنْ تَحَلَّمَ حُلْمًا كُلِّفَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَنْ يَعْقِدَ بَيْنَ شَعِيرَتَيْنِ وَلَيْسَ بِفَاعِل»
(Whoever claims to have seen a dream (when he has not seen) will be told on the Day of Resurrection to make a knot between two barley grains, and he will not be able to do it.)

Each of hearing, sight and the heart will be questioned, meaning, the person will be asked about them on the Day of Resurrection, and they will be asked about him and what he did with them.
[Tafseer Ibn Katheer]
