The reward for following the lesson online
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I am unable to attend the lesson in person, and I live in Riyadh, so I follow it via the internet. Do I receive the reward for attending the lesson, and am I considered among those whom the angels surround?
Answer:
Yes. At the very least, I say that he did what he was able to, and may Allah reward him with good. He did what he was able to, but it is not like the one who is present, who attends, discusses, and listens. However, he did what he was able to, and he will have, if Allah wills, whatever reward Allah has decreed for him. Yes.
