Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Shaykh, I have a question.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
Regarding the scientific homeland outside the Levant, as for us in Europe, does this fall under our religion outside the Levant?
The Shaykh:
If he needs to learn matters that he does not find in the lands of the Muslims, he goes to learn them for his own benefit and the benefit of the Muslims, while holding fast to his religion. There is nothing wrong with this.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
