The Shaykh’s Sermons and His Published Works

The questioner:
People have read many of the sermons our guest delivered in the mosque where the people gather. Do you have any words on this topic and regarding these sermons?

The Shaykh:
Praise be to Allah for the sermons. A new beginning. Music. But an attempt, may Allah the Mighty and Majestic make it beneficial. I used to write the sermons, prepare them, and edit them before delivering them.
When a large collection of these sermons had accumulated over the years that passed, I thought it best to publish them so they would remain, and may Allah willing, they will help preachers, especially beginner preachers. So I published them, and praise be to Allah. The word is volumes; they are now in the hands of people who want them, and the fourth volume, praise be to Allah, is now under press, and may Allah willing, it will soon be finished. We ask Allah the Mighty and Majestic to make this beneficial, as it is either a participation or a small contribution in this matter.

The questioner:
May Allah bless you. Dr. Faisal, if I said that those sermons were a reference for scholars as well, what would you say?

The Shaykh:
I do not say that. I say they are a reference for beginners or for those who do not have sufficient time to prepare in the field of teaching. I am not among those who write for the sake of authorship, but there are things I write out of necessity only. Yes. Or I write them for reasons. Fine. So when they accumulated and I gathered them, I thought that leaving them unprinted would be a waste. Yes. So I proceed to gift them and print them, meaning it is a check that you can rely on as authored works. And although I do not consider them authored works, but rather, more accurately, they are notes or papers. May Allah bless you. Yes. As you mentioned.
By Allah, as I mentioned, I do not write initially, but I write for the library. Starting from the section of school curricula, which relates to their writing, and I have written, praise be to Allah, in the curricula of Aqeedah (creed) and in the curricula of Fiqh (jurisprudence), which is known now. And I also wrote in the scientific institutes, in the secondary schools, and in the colleges of the Islamic University of Imam Muhammad ibn Sa'ud, the secondary and intermediate levels, yes, in the Ministry of Education. This is from the aspect of their methodological writing. Yes. As for the other writings, as we mentioned, the radio sermons, which consist of four volumes, and the fourth volume is now in the process of printing the first part, may Allah willing, a book on Aqeedah, which is part of a program on Aqeedah on the radio, yes, meaning the essence of Islamic Aqeedah. And I know now the book is titled "The Disclosure to the Correct Belief." May Allah preserve you.
Likewise, the articles and responses that I wrote in the newspapers and magazines, as I recently referred to, I have collected, organized, and indexed them, and they are now under press and may appear, may Allah willing, in a volume. Fine. If you permit me, the clarification of errors by some writers. May Allah bless you.
