Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a recognized scholar warns about another scholar known for adhering to the Sunnah and uprightness, is his statement accepted absolutely on the grounds that he knows him better than others?
Answer:
I do not know which of them is correct. As long as he is a scholar and trustworthy, his statement is accepted. If one of the scholars says this because he does not follow him, there may be a bias between them or some element of ego. Yes.
