If the two mujtahids differ in direction, is it valid?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Abd al-Rahman.
The questioner : Yesterday we established that if the two mujtahids differ in direction, it is valid for one to follow the other. In this lesson, the madhhab will be closer.
The Shaykh : Yes, because it has become clear that the contradiction in it is obvious. This is not following in faith; it is a clear contradiction, just as if he contradicted him in actions.
