Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh! Some people criticize some students of knowledge for exaggerating in applying the Sunnahs, and they say this is excessive rigor in the religion and exaggeration. Is there any validity to their words?

Answer:
No, and exaggeration in completing the Sunnah is a matter of its guarantee, and there is no digging, and no extremism, one attends to the Sunnah and completes it, this is the obligatory, this is the prescribed, one attends to it until he implements it. Yes.
