Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah protect you. Who is it that says that the existing tribes were merely groups of people who gathered together and do not descend from a single ancestor, meaning that the rulings are based on historical facts? Is he one who speaks about the rulings? For the historical evidence points to this.
Answer:
Yes, among the tribes there are pure tribes and there are tribes of neighboring alliances. This does not harm them; they are all Arabs, and this does not harm them. I have found in ancient times the issue of neighboring alliances and such, and this is not considered a disparagement of lineages. Yes.
