Ibnul Qayyim -raḥimahullāh- states in Al-Kāfiyah Ash-Shāfiyah:
ٱلْعِلْمُ قَالَ ٱللهُ قَالَ رَسُولُهُ
قَالَ ٱلصَّحَابَةُ هُمْ أُولُوا ٱلْعِرْفَانِ
مَا ٱلْعِلْمُ نَصْبَكَ لِلْخِلَافِ سَفَاهَةً
بَيْنَ ٱلنُّصُوصِ وَبَيْنَ رَأْيِ فُلَانِ
❝Knowledge is what Allāh and His Messenger said...and what the companions said; for they are the people of knowledge
Knowledge is not to dispute foolishly...by equating the divine texts to the opinion of so and so❞
