Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on seeking knowledge from the hands of disbelievers?
Answer:
Knowledge of crafts and worldly matters: if no one else is skilled in them, there is nothing wrong with it. As for the knowledge of the Shari'ah, it is not taken except from the scholars of the Muslims; it is not taken from disbelievers. In fact, it is not taken from a Muslim who is lax in his religion or an innovator, so how could it be taken from a disbeliever? Yes.
