Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it established that there is a report from 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) that when he saw the large number of people heading to Hajj, he said, "The caravan is large, but the pilgrims are few," and what is the meaning of what he said?

Answer:
I do not know, by Allah, I do not know. I mean, to judge people, I do not know, by Allah. One should have a good opinion of the pilgrims. Yes.
