Ruling On Imitation Of The Qur’an

(Using Quranic VersesI nappropriately In Newspaper Articles)

Question

One of the newspapers published in an article which reads: (Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with the companions of the whites... Did He not make their plots to undermine them, and sent upon them the hawks of monotheism, and the dark, staunch leopards, and made them into exile, scattered thunders?

What do you say about such words?

Answer:

Praise be to God, and prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of God, our master Muhammad, and upon all his family and companions. As for what follows:

This speech responsible for its ruling in the Sharia is revealed in the circle of imitation of the Qur’an in something other than what was revealed in it, and it is greater and greater than being revealed in this house in which there is an insult to him and a distortion in it. mechanism.

The jurists - may God Almighty have mercy on them - have stated that it is not permissible to use Qur’anic verses and to download them in cases in which they were not revealed, such as the saying of the one who is addressing someone who is coming to him (Then you came according to destiny, O Moses), and they considered this as an denial of the saying that it is not permissible to use it or apply it in anything other than what was revealed in it. The Quran.

This is other than citing the Qur’anic verses that came down against the wrongdoers, unbelievers or apostates.

As for the speech responsible for it, it falls under the section of distorting the verses of the Qur’an by replacing some of its words with others. This is what appears to us, and God knows best.

On this occasion, we remind the owners of newspapers and those who write in them to weigh their words with the scale of Sharia, so that they write only the truth and the truth, and to know that they are held accountable for what they say, and a word may plunge its owner into the fire of Hell for seventy autumns, as the honorable hadith came, and to always be far away from what causes them to fall into a circle of distortion. Quran or mocking it without realizing it.

I say this, because the religion is sincerity as it came in the honorable hadith of the Prophet, and may God’s prayers and peace be upon our master Muhammad and all his family and companions, and praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds.
