Abstract: (318 Views) |
This research analyzes Ibn Taymiyyah's view on denying the verse of Wilayat and criticizing it based on Sunni sources. The research issue is to examine Ibn Taymiyyah's interpretation of this verse as the general guardianship of the believers and rejecting its connection with the guardianship of Ali ibn Abi Talib (a), which uses a descriptive-analytical method and cites Sunni narrative, historical, and interpretive sources to examine Ibn Taymiyyah's interpretation and evaluate his claims. The research findings show that Ibn Taymiyyah, relying on the superficiality of the Quran and ignoring historical evidence and continuous narrations, rejects the specific interpretation of the verse. This approach contradicts the consensus of Sunni scholars who consider the verse to be about Ali (a). Also, Ibn Taymiyyah's claim of the related narrations as being forged is inconsistent with the hadiths stated in reliable Sunni sources. The results of the research indicate that Ibn Taymiyyah's view was influenced by the political-jurisprudential conditions of his time and is not consistent with the Sunni traditions. Keywords: Imam Ali (a), Verse of Guardianship, Charity, Ibn Taymiyyah, Sunni Sources, Formalism.
