Have you ever been judged for being "too young," "too inexperienced," or "not qualified enough"?
This story from Islamic history is a timeless lesson in why we must look beyond the surface.
Although Ibn Abbas was younger at the age of Razi, Umar Razi used to evaluate him very much. He used to sit in a rally with great prominent disciples. Some of them were angry in their heart and said, "Why does this boy sit with us?" But we also have a boy in his age. Umar Razi used to say, where do you know this boy? That is, the Prophet (pbuh) family.
Ibn Abbas Razi said, "Umar Razi one day everyoneIt was as if he had called me in front of them to clear the matter. That means to inform about the depth of his knowledge.
Umar Razi said, "What is your statement about 'this Za Nasrullah'? Someone made the general or literal meaning of the Surah. "Since Allah helped us and gave victory, this Surah has been ordered to praise Allah and to ask forgiveness to Him." And some were silent, saying nothingNo
This time Umar Razi said, O Ibn Abbas! What is you like? Do you say so? Ibn Abbas Razi said, "It means that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was the death of the Prophet (peace be upon him), which Allah has informed him." That is, since the help and victory of Allah has come, it means that it is a sign of the death of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Now the work of the Prophet is to praise Allah and repent to Him.He is the repentance.
Then Umar Razi said, "I do not know anything except what you are saying about it." (Bokhari)
For those who do not accept the metaphorical meaning of the Qur'an, and those who think that the Qur'an can no other meaning in the book of Tafsir, there may be some education in the above event.
In fact, all the established mistakes except in one subject can be wrong, and that one can be right like that one can be evaluated Not done.
**The Takeaway for Us Today**
This isn't just a historical anecdote. It's a paradigm for life:
· Don't Dismiss Youthful Wisdom: Insight isn't bound by age.
· Seek Depth, Not Just Literal Meaning: Truth often lies beneath the surface, in the metaphorical and spiritual dimensions.
· Check Your Ego: The established elders had to confront their own prejudice.
In our times, with so much noise about "Dajjal," global politics, and economic shifts, the ability to discern deep, spiritual truths from surface-level chaos is more critical than ever.
