Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: You know, may Allah preserve you, the impact that satellite channels have, both negative and positive. Do you not see, Your Excellency, that your appearance on some channels benefits the people and spreads knowledge?
The Shaykh:
The dissemination of knowledge is not limited to satellite channels. The dissemination of knowledge, praise be to Allah, has many avenues. So whoever does not appear on the channels appears in the mosques, on the pulpits, and in the lectures. The ways to spread knowledge are many, praise be to Allah; they are not confined to the satellites. Yes.
The questioner:
He says: May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
And whoever is convinced of appearing on the satellites appears on them, and whoever is not convinced has a wide field before him. Yes.
