What is our position on the disagreement among scholars?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is our position on the disagreement that occurs among the people of knowledge? And how should the general public be guided when they ask about the causes of this disagreement, especially given the media's exaggeration of these differences?
The Shaykh:
You must learn. If you learn, you will know how to deal with disagreement. But if you enter into disagreement without having learned, that is not permissible. This is from ignorance. Yes.
The presenter:
You are better than him.
The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best.
