You said:
But what I know is that scholars dict fatwas, and are pro-physical travel and not the philosophical or spiritual "journey".
First off, this is an
appeal to authority. In other words, you insist it is true simply because the scholars have said so. I, too, could cite you several other scholars who, too, lay out their arguments in favor of a spiritual journey.
Secondly, what
undeniable proof do those scholars have to support their view. I am asking for proof and not conjecture.
And thirdly, do those views find unequivocal support from the Quran?
On the contrary, I not take seriously because HE IS perennialist. And perennialist arguments had been refuted by serious Salafi scholars long time ago
I don't see how you can claim his arguments have been refuted, considering I have only presented you with one argument from Mr. Assad. Also, may I ask: Do you know who Muhammad Assad is? I ask because you keep accusing him of being a perennialist without any support for said claim.
I would also like to address some statements you've made in your reply to mia666.
You said:
But the rejection of the travel in the Heaven is considered like being the rejection of the generally understanding of the sura
Not necessarily. How can the rejection of a physical ascend be equated with outright rejection of that sura (especially seeing as how much of the details of a physical ascend find no support from the Quran)? The Quran's take on this event is short, simple and succinct. So, I personally reject the supposed travel to heaven to have been a physical one yet that has not lead me to reject that sura.
there are people who (sincerely or not, isn’t the problem) understand, after a lecture, that the travel really happened.
And similarly there are people who believe that the travel was ONLY a spiritual one and not a physical one. You have every right to adhere to one view or the other, but at least first observe the arguments made by each views adherents.
The other problem is that rejecting the Travel is like rejecting the majesty of Allah because if He created the Earth from nothing, He can easily move his Messenger from a city to another in the unseen and unknown dimensions of the live.
Again, not true. Those, such as myself, who reject it as haven been a physical ascend are not rejecting it on the basis that Allah is unable to move his messenger from city to city.
And discuss about it with any random Muslim, whoever is (Ahmadi, Sunni orthodox, Reformist, Shia, Wahabi, Sufi ,Alevi, even Quranist) will be seen like a negation of the power of God.
How so?
The salah... is realized by Muhammad, and the processus is explained in the Hadiths, not in the Qu’ran. So, affirm this will scandalize everyone, even the most tolerant and open-minded people.
I complelty dis agree with you when you assert that the salat is explain in the Hadith and not in the Quran. Allow me to explain why below:
Allah refers to the Quran as a book
(full) of guidance/a guidance for mankind (see: 2:2-3; 2:185) and one which guides to a path which is most firm, right, straight and stable (31:3; 17:9; 2:2-3; 17:9; 16:89). For a book to guide it would follow that said book would contain all rituals, practices, info, and details necessary for our guidance and which would therefore lead to that guidance. But if we are to accept the argument that the salat, which are necessary for our guidance, cannot be found in the Quran and can (therefore) only be found in other sources, is to concede to the idea that the Quran is not necessarily a book “of guidance” (as all info, details and practices necessary for our guidance cannot be found in there). Because how can it on the one hand claim/call itself a "
book of guidance/a guidance for mankind", yet on the other hand omit things (such as the salat) necessary for our guidance? In such instance the Quran would only contain “half guidance."
So, by claiming that the Quran does not contain ALL the rituals/info/practices (in particular the salat) fundamental to the religion AND necessary for our guidance (despite Allah having referred to it is as a book full) of guidance/a guidance for mankind -see: 2:2-3; 2:185), is to suggest that Allah has told a lie (Allah be free from such).
Allow me to ask you several question:
1) What reason does Allah have to tell us in the Quran to pray the salat, yet not even given mention as to how it is to should be performed? It would be unjust for Allah to command us to do something in the Quran (i.e. praying salat) and yet not teach (in that same book) how such command should be carried.
2) What are we to think of a scripture (i.e the Quran) that repeatedly emphasizes a certain act/practice (such as the salah) but never explains (as claimed by you) how to perform said act/practice? The conclusion drawn would be that said scripture is a terrible omission (and in that case it cannot be from God).
3) If, as claimed by you, the Hadith teaches one how to pray then how do you explain the different method each sect (and sub-sect) offers their prayer, each claiming to find support from their Hadith (associated to the prophet)?
Please consider reading the following article which explains the salat solely from a Quran perspective:
