A two-part lecture filled with baseerah (insightful knowledge) conducted in the city of Madeenah. A broad range of topics related to ‘Aqeedah, Fiqh, Manhaj and Da’wah are expounded upon by this noble Scholar. A question which sheds light on one of the trials facing the Muslim in the west is brought forth during the second question.
“What is your advice to a person who wishes to seek knowledge and hold on to it?” The Shaykh replied: ‘It is upon you to maintain contact with the people of knowledge (‘Ulamaa) so that you can benefit from them…’ An important answer from a true Alim (scholar) which needs to be comprehended by the Muslims since many have taken the laymen, one who memorized a book, one who spent a day or month with an alim, read books of Tafseer and Hadeeth in Kuffar Universities and so on to be the beacons of knowledge in their lives. This answer is also a befitting reply to those who claim that we need not run to the ‘Ulamaa overseas when we potentially have ‘Ulamaa in our lands (the west).
