The questioner:
May Allah reward you, O delegate. We sometimes hear some people saying to others, “I miss your heart, even if the people come to you and kill you.”
The Shaykh:
This is a hadith, a hadith from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
The questioner:
It says: “What remains of the long, gathered explanations, meaning with…”
The Shaykh:
The meaning is: when you hear the fatwas, you should follow what your heart finds peace with, because the believing heart finds peace with some things and rejects others. So if your heart finds peace with the statement of one of the scholars, stick to it and act upon it. And if your heart recoils from it, stay away from it. Yes.
