Question:
This is a question from the sisters. She asks: Is it permissible for me to memorize the concise books of 'aqidah without referring to the scholars, because I am unable to attend the scholarly lessons in the mosques?
Answer:
Memorization alone is not sufficient; you do not understand what you have memorized except through the scholars. It is obligatory for them to explain it to you, so you listen to their explanation. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
