Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible for preachers and students of knowledge to appear on television out of necessity?
Answer:
Television transmits; it is a recording that is fixed and remains. It is a transmission, like the transmission of the prayer from al-Masjid al-Haram, the transmission of the prayer from al-Masjid al-Nabawi, and the transmission of the pilgrims at 'Arafah and at the sacred sites. This is a live transmission; they call it live broadcasting.
