The Shaykh : No problem; do you mean this?
The questioner : ... ... .
The Shaykh : Fine; this is an example of what I mentioned from the previous rule; from which type are you deriving evidence now?! A specific text or a general one, explicit or implied; what?
The questioner : A general text.
The Shaykh : A general text, apply the rule that you are convinced by, otherwise there is no way you will be convinced by my answer which is based on it; clear?
The questioner : Is that clear?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I do not want you to be convinced with me, it is enough that the speech is clear.
The questioner : The methodology is clear.
The Shaykh : Yes?
The questioner : I say: the methodology is clear.
The Shaykh : The methodology is clear, that one expands, perhaps it becomes something of a burden for some people and not for all of them, so I say - for example - to Abu Yasser: what is your opinion? But I fear he will be annoyed by this restriction with this question; so I leave him the freedom if he wishes ... with it and if he wishes to remain silent.
The questioner : I ... the question, this is a deviation!! [Everyone laughs].
The Shaykh : Unless you counter your answer by saying that I am also obligated - likewise - to ask, am I wrong?

The questioner: The second.
The Shaykh: She?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : So you are then with me in the rule, but perhaps you are not with me in the application, and here is the problem.
The questioner : I say: if he formulates now ... , and if you want it without a rule ... .
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good, fine; that is what we seek.
