Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, is it true that the testimony of a teacher of young boys is not accepted, and why?
Answer:
No, it is not true, it is not true. What is the obstacle to it? Accepting testimony. He is a doer of good who taught the young boys; this is a doer of good. But people say that the teacher of young boys becomes foolish at the end of his life. They say he becomes foolish because the young boys, meaning, they have an effect on him, and he is affected, and his mind becomes disordered at the end of his life. Allah knows best. This is, meaning, just talk. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
