بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ وَ الصَّلاَةُ وَ السَّلاَمُ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى آلِهِ وَ صَحْبِهِ اَجْمَعِينَ

E) INTERPRETATIONS ARE NOT TO BE MADE ON THE EXPLICIT EXPRESSIONS AND JUDGEMENTS OF THE QUR’AN

1- “...the creation of sharr is not sharr, but rather the kasb on sharr is sharr. Because the creation and bringing into existence look to the general results. Since the existence of a sharr is the introduction to many results with khayr, the creation of that sharr becomes khayr, and is khayr concerning its results...

Thus, because the Mu'tazilites did not understand this mystery, by saying "The creation of sharr is sharr and the creation of ugly is ugly", they did not attribute the creation of sharr to Janâb-i Haqq in order to exonerate Him; they fell into dhalâlah. They made a forced interpretation of a pillar of îmân which is وَبِا لْقَدَر خَيْرِهِ وَ شَرِّهِ1 .” The Thirteenth Flash-7th Indication

2- “…not squeezing in his compassion the burning of kâfirs and munâfiqs in Jahannam-fire and the events like torment and jihâd and deviating into a forced interpretation are a denial and refutation of a major part of the Qur’an and samawî religions; it is also a great dhulm and extreme mercilessness.” Kastamonu Addendum (85)

2-a “As for Musa Bekûf2 , due to his thoughts that are excessively favourable for reform and concessive for modernity, he is in a significant error. He corrupts some of the haqiqahs of Islam with false interpretations.” The Twenty-Eighth Flash

2-b “The Qur'an of Miraculous Exposition describes the physical pleasures so explicitly, it is impossible not to accept the apparent meaning by making forced interpretations.” Eleventh Ray-A Summary of the Eighth Matter

3- “O unfair committee! If it is possible to deny numerous sarîh âyahs of the Qur'an of Miraculous Exposition, which is the sacred samâwi guide of three hundred and fifty million people in every century, the programme of all their happiness and the sacred treasury of the life of the world and the âkhirah, revealed about the tasattur, inheritance, polygamy, dhikr of Allah, instruction and dissemination of ‘ilm on the religion and the preservation of the shaâ’er, the sarîh âyahs of the Qur'an, which do not bear interpretation, and if it is possible to make all Islamic mujtahids and all Shaykhs al-Islam guilty and if you can abolish and remove the passage of time, the numerous court acquittals, the legal pardons, confidentiality and privacy, the freedom of conscience, the freedom of thought and intellectual and scholarly opposition from this country and governments, you can make me guilty of these things. Otherwise, in the court of haqiqah, haqq and justice, you will be terribly guilty!” The Fourteenth Ray

4- “…the explicit statements of the Qur'an do not bear interpretation.” Ninth Flash

4-a- “O one, who tainted his mind with philosophy and who prefers the mind (aql) over transmitted knowledge3 (naql), know! You wrongly interpret the transmitted knowledge (naql) with your mind tainted with philosophy and distort it since your mind, corrupted due to pride and due to penetrating philosophical matters, cannot comprehend it.” Al-Mathnawî al-Nûrî (208)

4-b- “Unlike the tarîqahs or other ways, the way of Risale-i Nur not being defeated but rather being victorious and bringing many obstinate people to îmân have proven with the testimony of so many events that the Risale-i Nur is a ma’nawî miracle of the Qur’an in this age. Events have given us the firm conviction that in this country, the service to religion outside the Risale-i Nur’s circle can only be performed in a particular, minor and individual way, or a defeated fashion under a veil, or by way of showing tolerance to bid’ahs, or through forced interpretations within thousands of deliberate distortions.” Emirdağ Addendum-1 63

5- “Another mystery of the delay of Hazrat 'Ali's khilâfah is the following: at a time when various tribes intermingled, and the events full of fitnah occurred in those tribes bearing the basis of the thoughts of seventy-three groups that the Prophet ‘Alayhissalâtu Wassalâm had informed and that will evolve in due time, someone was needed with the wondrous courage and farâsah like Hazrat 'Ali, someone powerful and respected like Hashimites and Âl al-bayt so that he could resist. And, indeed, he did so as Ar-Rasûl Al-Akram ‘Alayhissalâtu Wassalâm informed: "I have fought for the revelation of the Qur’an; you will fight for its wrong interpretations."
