Transmitting the Words of the Scholars and Their Responses to Those Who Disagree with Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If I transmit the words of the scholars and their responses to those who disagree with the methodology of the Salaf, have I become occupied with what is not beneficial and neglected the pursuit of knowledge?
Answer:
What do you mean by transmitting? If you mean that you write responses that you copy from books, that is not permissible. But if you mean that you take the books containing the responses and give them to others, that is good. Yes.
