Question:
He says: I am a young man residing in an Arab country where there are many who claim to be Salafis among the shaykhs, and the students of knowledge under these shaykhs attack one another to the extent that the youth no longer know from whom to receive the correct knowledge. So what do you advise them?
Answer:
We advise them to seek knowledge from the scholars. From the scholars known for their knowledge. Known for their religion and their correct creed. And they should leave those who have no concern other than attacking, and responding, and belittling, and sowing enmity among the students of knowledge. This is from Shaytan. And these are ignorant people, not students of knowledge; students of knowledge do not follow this path. You must seek knowledge from the people of knowledge and insight, and leave these people and do not pay attention to them.
