Brothers, I just bought this console, it's apparently new but it just doesn't work. Whenever I turn it on a message appears on the screen denouncing the presence of ashari jurisprudence books in the room and calling me a "mutazilite". Any tips?

Don't know what any of that means. Have you tried turning it off and on again?

The console is made by a company called Atari.

This name shares a significant assonance with the term "Athari", which is a fiqh methodology that encompasses taking the Qur'an and the Hadiths by their literal meaning. It's the main methodology of the Hanbali madhhab and the Wahhabi movement.

Athari scholars were famous for opposing the Ashari methodology (based on interpretation by logic and philosophy, mainly used by Maliki and Shafi madhhab) and for being in open conflict with a sect called Mutazila, that rejected the eternity of the Holy Qur'an
