What are the appropriate times to ask questions and seek clarification from the Shaykh in Makkah and Unayzah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : May Allah reward our Shaykh with the best reward and benefit us all with what we have heard. May Allah preserve him and guide his steps. Some of the brothers are asking what the appropriate times are to ask questions and seek clarification from the Shaykh, whether in Unayzah or in Makkah?
Answer : Yes. As for Makkah, it will be, if Allah wills, taking phone calls after the 'Asr prayer. The number will be announced on our phone here; you tune in to the phone here and they give you the number. I do not have it memorized right now, but I will write it down for you. As for Unayzah, it is in Ramadan after Maghrib and after 'Asr, unless there is a day when I am busy. If there is no such day, I will take the calls. We ask Allah for success. It seems the brothers are [unclear] after 'Asr, but in truth, I am among those who shortchange in this matter; I sometimes give less than is due. In any case, may Allah reward us. Also, we have arranged, by consultation with the student brothers—may Allah reward them with good—an appointment every Thursday from ten o'clock until two o'clock. The session is general, but this Thursday there is no sitting, even though it is not Ramadan. Yes. Peace be upon you. This is riba (usury or interest). Well, so that we can pass by the employees in their offices. No, no, this Thursday does not work.
