Is the condition of the narrator examined before the rule that explained criticism takes precedence over vindication?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, if you say that the rule in criticism and vindication is that criticism takes precedence when the reason is explained, then we do not look at the condition of the narrator before we look at the criticism.
The Shaykh : What do we look at?
The questioner : We look at the condition of the critic. It is possible that one of them is strict and the other is moderate?
The Shaykh : We are not currently dealing with details, such as one being lenient and one being strict, whereas we are saying that they are two imams who are preservers, meaning each of them is on the right path, with no excess and no deficiency. However, when other examples come up, each has its own answer.
