The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is your advice, Shaykh, for students of knowledge to engage in seeking knowledge and leave the disagreement among the scholars?
The Shaykh:
They should leave it.
The questioner:
And leave the disagreement among the scholars.
The Shaykh:
They should seek knowledge, not engage in disagreement, and not be concerned with disagreement. They should seek knowledge and the principles, and proceed according to the fundamentals, without engaging in disagreement or entering into it, or saying this one is wrong and this one is right. That is not seeking knowledge.
