What does the scholars' statement (in the most correct of the scholars' opinions) mean?

The questioner : Okay, he asks: What does it mean when some scholars say, "In the most correct of the scholars' opinions"? It means that the scholar who is speaking said, "This is forbidden in the most correct of the scholars' opinions," which implies that there are two opinions, and the most correct one is the one he mentioned. Did you understand?

The Shaykh : Yes, this is most common in the words of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him). For example, he might say, "This is obligatory in the most correct of the opinions." So, there are two opinions in the issue, and the most correct one, in his view, is the one he mentioned.

The questioner : Prepared by the Project of the Senior Scholars of Kuwait, may Allah honor it with tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and the Sunnah.
