Surah Al Isra (17:36) Allah says: وَلَا تَقۡفُ مَا لَيۡسَ لَكَ بِهِۦ عِلۡمٌۚ إِنَّ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَٱلۡبَصَرَ وَٱلۡفُؤَادَ كُلُّ أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ كَانَ عَنۡهُ مَسۡـُٔولٗا AALA-MAUDUDI IBN-KATHIR ALA-MAUDUDI (17:36) (xiii) Do not follow that of which you have no knowledge. Surely the hearing, the sight, the heart – each of these shall be called to account. [42] 42. The meanings of “Do not follow that of which you have no knowledge” are very comprehensive.
