Should I seek knowledge from students of knowledge, or should I limit myself to scholars only?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Is it permissible for me to attend the gatherings of students of knowledge, or should I limit myself to scholars?
Answer:
Whatever contains benefit, you seek it. If you benefit from something that is correct, you benefit from it. Your colleagues also benefit from you; you review with them and benefit from them. We used to review among ourselves during our time of study, and we would benefit from one another. And the ultimate goal is with the scholars, but the fact that students of knowledge review and consult with one another is a good thing. Yes.
