Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner: Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings. Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. I am a young man to whom Allah has granted guidance. I got to know some upright young men, and then one of my friends told me to leave them, saying that they claim to be Salafis and that they forbid nasheeds (religious songs), forbidding and permitting things. He gave me an example, which is nasheeds. What is your view on this?
Answer:
The Shaykh: Praise be to Allah who has granted you guidance and a love for what is good. However, we advise you to learn beneficial knowledge from the scholars. Do not go to these young men; rather, go to the gatherings of knowledge and to the scholars, and strive for beneficial study. This is what is required. Yes.
