A discussion regarding the two Shaykhs, "Abd al-Qadir al-Arna'ut" and "Shu'ayb al-Arna'ut," and the Shaykh's disagreement with them.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Shaykh, regarding Shaykh Abd al-Qadir and Shaykh Shu'ayb.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner: What is the story of the disagreement? Is there a disagreement between you and them, or something?
The Shaykh: No, the disagreement is methodological in origin, but they, I mean, they have become moderate. When they saw that the whole world would become Salafi, they became somewhat moderate, but practically you don't feel that they are Salafis, except that Shu'ayb is less so than Abd al-Qadir; Abd al-Qadir is better than him; I mean, in character and adherence.
The questioner: In terms of creed, are they Salafis?
The Shaykh: I have no knowledge of what their position is regarding these matters...
The questioner: I heard now that they are here in Jordan.
The Shaykh: I heard that Shu'ayb is here, is Abd al-Qadir also here?
The questioner: That is what I heard, I do not know.
The Shaykh : Yes.
Another questioner : ... .
The questioner: In "Amman" they want to open an office for research, and the most important thing is that they want to research the books of the Shaykh that he has researched entirely.
Another questioner: Research... I mean?
The questioner: Re-researching the books of the Shaykh.
Another questioner: One must be certain now.
The questioner: This matter was mentioned to me by his student, and I was in Makkah.
Another questioner: My master, they are researching.
Another questioner: Do they have students as well?
The questioner : Yes.
Another questioner : What Allah willed.
Another questioner: If every person wants to say a word!!
The Shaykh: ... the group, Professor.
Another questioner: May Allah will it, brothers, next Friday... everyone, the invitation is for everyone.
Another questioner : May Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
Another questioner: We are moderate, Shaykh!
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you.
