Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is this saying correct, "I have been imbued with the love of this Shaykh"? Is there anything wrong with this? I have been imbued with the love of this Shaykh.
Answer:
The Shaykh: Yes. I mean, no. This is an exaggeration, and "imbued" is an exaggeration. Say, "I love this Shaykh," if he is one of the people of good, knowledge, and virtue, say you love him. Do not say "I have been imbued." This is imitating those who associated partners with Allah in their hearts regarding the calf. This is an exaggeration. Yes.
