Maulana, agla sawal Kolkata se Aftab Alam sahib ne bheja hai. "It has been said that every Sahaba is to be followed. They are like stars. But it is learned from history that sometimes they have been diverted from truth and it had led
to a big conflict like the Battle of Siffin, which was the first civil war. Then in what manner we have been directed to follow them? Please explain this issue." Dekhiye, Sahaba ke haan agar ikhtilaf na ho, bilkul to woh hai it'at ka masla. aur agar ikhtilaf paya jaye, tab woh hai ijtihad ka masla.
kyunke الصحابة كلهم عدول toh agar aap ko nazar aata hai ke Sahaba ne kis moamle mein mukhtalif andaaz ikhtiyar kiya, toh aap us masle ko ijtihad ka masla banaiye. aap ghaur kijiye ke us mein aap ki nazar se kya theek hai. agar aisa nahi hai toh is ko it'aat ka masla banaiye. yeh maslak hai qadeem zamane se ulama ka is muamle mein. Maulana, agla sawal Nagpur se Muhammad Irfan Rasheedi sahib ne kiya hai.
