Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: The debates that are broadcast on screens, which take place between some of the Shi'ah and some of the Sunnah, do you advise looking at them and benefiting from them?
Answer:
But who is debating them? Is the one debating them from among the scholars? Or is he an enthusiast who has religion and such, but does not have knowledge? They overpower him? That is the problem. And if scholars are debating them, that is a good thing. Yes.
