[quote]Dear Brother,
 
Quote:-What is the qualitative difference between ilqa and wahi? if the certitude assigned to Ilqa is the same as that assigned to wahi?

I think you have not red my reply carefully.As I said earlier, ilqa is only for that particular person and wahi is for all ummah of the prophet to follow,secondly I have said that one have be make sure that ilqa must be in accordance to the teaching of the prophet.Have you seen the difference between two now?

Quote:-Fourthly, please elaborate on the words of the Hadith, I dont quite understand, because if it is "what I like it is from Allah" - so anything that I like (I may not be a very pious person) becomes part of my religion, because it is from Allah? Can religion be defined like that?

Now you have problem with the prophet(pbuh) words also,I am not a scholar so I can say some with certainty.What I can say is a pious person is truly benefited from Quran and Sunnah.

This Book, there is no doubt in it, is a guide to those who guard (against evil). (2:2)

So only Muttaqi people could only be benefited from it.
 
Quote:-Lastly, how can something other than Quran and Sunnah claim to be of divine origin, because in that case you are introducing a thrid source of religious knowledge? Let me explain, for example, what if the scholars of this website claim that they have developed their religious views based on ilqa (I am not saying they do, but what if) - Wouldnt all of the criticism on them become unvalid? As they would have legitimized it through ilqa? - I hope you have understood in principal what I am asking?

When ilqa have to be in conformity of Quran and Sunnah and ilqa is for the guidance for that particular person only, then there is no place for such questions.
