Learning the points of articulation of the letters or engaging in other sciences
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: Is it better for a student of knowledge to learn the points of articulation of the letters, or to engage in other sciences?
The Shaykh:
And this is one of the major sins. And he does not engage in seeking knowledge.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
He secures the Qur'an from lahn (mispronunciation), securing the Qur'an from lahn, just as one compares grammar in the Arabic language; this is the obligatory duty.
