Does one who believes in resurrection by the spirit alone rule with disbelief or not?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The assertion that the soul will be resurrected without the body on the Day of Judgment is an act of disbelief in Allah and a denial of the Quran. Some philosophers, such as Al-Farabi and Ibn Sina, adopted this view. Al-Ghazali declared Al-Farabi an infidel for his assertions regarding the world's eternity, the absence of bodily resurrection, and his claim that Allah does not know particulars.
