Question:
Peace be upon you. Do names resemble actions?
Answer:
Therefore, it has become well-known among them now that a group of them, who are callers to Allah, are known for saying: Do not learn, do not sit in the circles of dhikr (remembrance of Allah), do not learn knowledge. It is sufficient for you that you pray, fast, and worship, that you remember Allah, and that you engage in dhikr, tasbih (glorification), and tahlil (declaring the oneness of Allah). This is sufficient for you instead of learning knowledge from so-and-so and so-and-so. Yes. This is a blow to the blowers of the schools of falsehood. Yes.
