Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Should students of knowledge publish a scholar's response to a specific person?
Answer:
If there is a benefit in it, yes. If publishing the response serves the benefit of warning against this school of thought or this statement, there is no doubt. The truth is dearer to us than so-and-so. We do not preserve so-and-so and the honor of so-and-so, as they say, while we lose the truth. The truth is more precious to us. Yes.
