Answer:
The Salaf warned against sitting with the innovators and taking knowledge from them. It is not permissible to take knowledge from the innovators; rather, one takes knowledge from the people of the Sunnah, from the scholars of the people of the Sunnah, and they are present, praise be to Allah. Yes.
