Question:
What is your advice for university students: should they attend the scholarly lessons held in the mosques, or is it sufficient for them to stick to the academic curriculum they study at the university?
Answer:
First and foremost, they must master the regular lessons. If they have time left over, there is no harm in their attending the lessons in the mosques. However, if they attend the lessons in the mosques and neglect the regular lessons, that is not appropriate, and it will cause them a deficiency in their acquisition of knowledge and their studies. They should prioritize the regular lessons. If they have time left, they attend; if they have no time left, they stick to the regular studies, and there is good in that, if Allah wills, provided they master them and find good in them. Yes.
