The Shaykh : ... The matter requires knowledge. It is not enough to say: People are not scholars in calling to Islam, and the call to them... a large part of it, no one can carry this out except the people of knowledge; therefore... a group of ours... in a village called al-Zubdani, they call to... here, I said to him: I felt that the one speaking to me was not knowledgeable, so I said to him: Fine, even for you to understand the meaning of the legal rulings... you need some knowledge of the Arabic language and its literature.
