Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the one who does not attend the scholarly lessons, nor sit with his brothers, but rather sits with his wife because he loves her, is this a blameworthy love?
Answer:
Yes, this is the effect of what his soul loves over what Allah loves. Allah loves it more from you that you attend the gatherings of dhikr, seek knowledge, and do not prefer the love of your wife or your wealth over what Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, loves. Yes.
