Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : "What is known from the religion by necessity"?
The Shaykh : Oh?
The questioner : Is this a valid rule?
The Shaykh : It is valid.
The questioner : Okay, what does it mean, my Shaykh, and what are its cases?
The Shaykh : It means: every Muslim living in an Islamic country.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Shares in the knowledge that it is part of Islam.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : There is no difference between a scholar, a student, and an uneducated person.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : For example: zina. Is there any Muslim with this condition, living in Islamic lands,
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Who is unaware that it is forbidden?
The questioner : No.
The Shaykh : Drinking intoxicants, zina, and similar matters. But: this does not apply to the details that are the exclusive knowledge of scholars, for example:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1865Hasan (Darussalam).
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : This is not something in which every Muslim shares knowledge, and so on, with many other examples!
The questioner : Yes, correct. May Allah reward you with good.
