Is it permissible to ask the Shaykh, "What is your evidence for such-and-such an issue?"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah bless you. What is the evidence in the prayer for the one who intends to stand? Allah.
The Shaykh : What is our evidence? Yes. First, this phrase is a bad expression that should not be said by a student to his teacher. So repent to Allah from it, and whoever repents, Allah accepts his repentance. Hello. For something like this, you mean, may Allah will it, we will teach you proper conduct and knowledge, may Allah will it. Come on. Yes. For example, a third person says, "What is the evidence for such-and-such," whereas "What is your evidence?" is as if you are debating your Shaykh, which is not appropriate. But we hold that dust is not a condition; the correct view is that dust is not a condition.
