The intended meaning of the commentator's statement: "Our Shaykh mentioned this in the study session"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what does the author (may Allah have mercy on him) intend by his statement, "Our Shaykh mentioned this in the study session"?

Answer:
Their Shaykh who taught them is this author, Ibn Muflih. I mean, he is from the Muflih family, not the famous Ibn Muflih, the author of *al-Furu'*, but rather from his family. By "his Shaykh," he means the teacher who taught him. I do not know who his Shaykh was, but "in the study session" means in the lesson. It is not that he took it from a book; rather, he took it from the Shaykh's report in the lesson.
The statement may not be correct, or it may be correct, because the one who takes from a lesson may err or be correct, unlike the one who takes from a compiled, studied book, which is more precise. Therefore, the issues taken from lessons require verification, because the student may have misunderstood what the teacher said, or the teacher may have been distracted and made a mistake in his speech, unlike what is taken from a book, which is more precise and more reliable. Yes, and so this is part of integrity. The commentator's (may Allah have mercy on him) statement, "Our Shaykh mentioned this in the study session," is part of integrity, so that you know that the statement is not established; it may contain an error. Yes.
I do not know who his Shaykh was. Rather, he is not the famous Ibn Muflih, the author of *al-Furu'*. But he is from the Muflih family. Yes.
