The Sunnahs are rational connotations because they are ways, and the obligations are the legal definitions of what the Almighty’s truth is in relation to Him and in relation to His creation. So worship God, servants of God, according to the description with which He described Himself in His Book or on the tongues of the tongues of His Messengers, without addition, subtraction, or interpretation that leads to diminution or deletion. Rather, the Almighty, may He be glorified and exalted, granted to him what he described himself with, and if it is impossible or contradictory, then that is due to our shortcomings and ignorance of what the matter is about him, and we have fulfilled what theoretical rational power gave him in terms of knowledge of his existence, and with the truthfulness of those who conveyed about him, the Almighty, what he revealed to his servants, we say acceptance without objection, even if the matter contradicts and becomes impossible, then what?

As for what is forbidden by text, we are commanded to avoid it because it is forbidden to consume it in relation to the one who is prohibited from it, not in the specificity of the prohibited thing, because that specific prohibited thing has been made permissible for someone else, because that other person has a characteristic that is not in the one from whom it is prohibited. He made that characteristic permissible for him by making it permissible by the legislator, so that is why we said no in the specificity of what is prohibited, for it is not A single thing is forbidden in its entirety, and that is why God Almighty said, “Except what you are forced to do.” We know that the ruling on prohibition and other matters is based on the condition of the person obligated, and in some places on the name of the forbidden.
