The Eastern Bloc and the recent developments in Albania, Russia, Turkey, Azerbaijan, and Romania; perhaps the atmosphere has become suitable for calling to the Book
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... and this Eastern Bloc now, with the recent developments, it is not possible that, I mean, the atmosphere has started to become somewhat suitable for calling to the Book and the Sunnah?
The Shaykh : And where?
The questioner : ... these regions, the Eastern Bloc now.
...
Another questioner : ... Albania, Turkey?
The questioner : ... Albania and Romania?
The Shaykh : ... nothing has happened, may Allah reward you.
The questioner : ... nothing has happened, but there is a kind of...
...
Another questioner : ... .
The questioner : ... some easing is happening, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : ... but this does not suffice, not for da'wah, but even for visiting; it does not yet provide a scope until the matters are discovered with clarity and explanation.
The questioner : ... now it is permitted to her for the first time... to Russia.
The Shaykh : ... okay, but Albania, you know. From here or from the pilgrims?
Another questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : ... all one, have you read or not that Albania in the Soviet era attributed to Russia that it had deviated from the line of Lenin and Stalin.
Another questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : ... that is it, let us see what it decides regarding its affairs.
The questioner : ... yes, good; and its sisters?
The Shaykh : ... for example.
The questioner : ... Romania and Azerbaijan?
The Shaykh : ... the matters, my brother, do not reveal... their realities at this speed... as for a person going to visit, that is a possibility, but to call and find the way, we discussed with some of our young men what you think about us traveling to Albania? We see the situation there as a visit, but as da'wah, first, I still know the Albanian language and speak it, but... -- yes? on the right --, but the new Albanian has words I do not understand, because some of them come on the way of Hajj and 'Umrah and pass by us, so I can communicate with them, but with some difficulty; because the language has changed, you know the Turks - for example - in the time of Ataturk fought the Arabic language very severely, and he brought Persian words and terms in spite of the Arabic language and its terms. Immediately? ... .
The questioner : ... contribute, O our Shaykh... students of knowledge to some of this methodology that we seek and that all students of knowledge now seek as a step to purify fiqh.
The Shaykh : ... if I had free time! It is obligatory... this; ...?
Another questioner : Yes, yes.
The questioner : ... this work is nothing but the completion of your work, O Shaykh, which you started, and it is, I mean, the goal of purifying the Sunnah and understanding it.
The Shaykh : ... I know - may Allah reward you -, the issue is one of specialization, you saw some volumes of "Al-Sahihah" in which there is fiqh, but I am no longer able to proceed with such fiqh; because time is tighter.
