Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes, my teacher, we have reached the point where, if we return to the original and no report reaches us from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he established it, what do we do? Do we establish it?
The student : We do not establish it.
The Shaykh : Yes, that is the answer, then. Is it clear? Is it clear?
The student : It is clear, except for a difficulty.
The Shaykh : Bring it.
The student : Among the jurists, and among some of them, I do not claim generality, and generality is not a proof.
The Shaykh: Go ahead.
The student : I only want to discuss this? Is generality a proof?
The Shaykh : Generality is a proof; no one says this in an absolute and comprehensive sense.
The student : By the evidence of presumption of continuity.
The Shaykh : And especially since we agreed on this point, do not forget.
The student: Yes, this is correct.
The Shaykh : Then.
The student : We take the general evidence.
The Shaykh : How do you take the evidence, what?
The student : I mean, for example, we take the abrogated evidence until what comes? Until the abrogating evidence comes, or the general until the specific comes.
The Shaykh : This is a discussion that has ended between you and me.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The student: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah.
The student : How are you, our Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, how are you?
The student : I am well, and praise be to Allah.
The Shaykh : How are you this evening?
The student : I praise Allah the Exalted...
The Shaykh : Welcome.
The student : Is your brother Ali with you?
The Shaykh: Yes, by Allah.
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The student : Strange, glory be to Allah.
The Shaykh : And how did you agree with them to be with you and not with me?
The student : By Allah, my Shaykh. Based on this, we are waiting for them so we can call you; they are coming here... they did not come; we searched for them, we searched, we did not find them, by Allah.
The Shaykh : You agree on the basis that if I am free to answer the call, they are with you, not with me?
The student : Yes, that is what I know.
The Shaykh : That is what I understood from you.
The student : We will meet later and go out together, but I am looking for them; I have been sitting here for two hours.
The Shaykh : Glory be to Allah.
The student : Let us go, good, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Good, in any case, our appointment is tomorrow, if Allah wills.
The student : If Allah wills.
The Shaykh : Is there any other need?
The student : But I want to ask about them, I mean.
The Shaykh : Yes, he is with me.
The student : In every place, until I inform them that there is no appointment, good, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : All right, may Allah reward you with good.
The student : May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
The student: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The student : I did not understand...
The Shaykh : ... from my luck, this is me.
The student: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The student : May Allah reward you, my Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The student : And may our Lord preserve you.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The student : Of course, my Shaykh, as I told you, the boys are young and old, and the Mother of the Believers is over the boys.
The Shaykh : Who is going to be coming?
The student : Ali, because of his trip tomorrow.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student : So that we can spend as much time as possible with you.
The Shaykh : So what time did you agree on with him?
The student : I have just called now and am still in the process of making the arrangement.
The Shaykh : I am with you for the entire duration.
The student : At eight-thirty is fine, my Shaykh.
The Shaykh : For the entire duration.
The student : May Allah preserve you, my Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The student : Of course, my Shaykh, as I told you, the children are young and old, and the Mother of the Believers is with the children.
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you.
The student : May Allah reward you, our Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The student : And Abdul Latif and his sons and his wife and his daughters.
The Shaykh : By Allah, there is a burden, Abu Ahmad.
The student : Oh, my Shaykh, this burden is our breeze, my Shaykh.
The Shaykh : By Allah, that is the assumption, but not everyone is the same.
The student : By Allah, my Shaykh, we are very happy. It is true, my Shaykh, not everyone is the same, but we are of the type that finds rest in you.
The Shaykh : If you speak about yourself, that is acceptable to me.
The student : And my wife is now hinting to me, my Shaykh.
The Shaykh : But your wife, as I understood, is ill.
The student : What Allah willed, she is well now.
The Shaykh : And there is no blame on the sick person.
The student : My Shaykh, she is the mother of Ahmad; when she is well, she gathers with our sisters, and especially the mother of al-Fadl is at the head, meaning she is the mother of everyone, believe me, my Shaykh, she revives, and when she is ill, she becomes in her pocket with you only.
The Shaykh : By Allah, my master, as you know from our custom, we do not find joking.
The student : Enough, my Shaykh, and we are like you.
The Shaykh : So take your caution.
The student : May Allah preserve you, my Shaykh, welcome to you all.
The Shaykh : Fine, we are with you tomorrow in full, if the expression is correct.
The student : May Allah preserve you, and may our Lord bring you to us safely.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you.
The student : And peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The student : We did not want, my Shaykh, to tell him that we are coming here; you know Abu Ahmad is sensitive, I mean, because of the issue.
The Shaykh : No, I did not open the topic.
The student : May Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : Oh teacher, did we not agree that...
The student : You remembered, may Allah bless you.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The student : You remembered.
The Shaykh : You remembered.
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good, then there is no need to complete the discussion on this point.
The student : There is no need, my Shaykh, and...
The Shaykh : Fine, what remains in the topic with you?
The student : Nothing remains, my Shaykh, except that this rule... say who points to it from the scholars.
The Shaykh : This is what we always say to our brothers, from the beginning.
The student : And therefore...
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings and His forgiveness.
The questioner : How are you, my Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I am well.
The questioner : I want to bring to you the hadith that you mentioned at the house of the brother Azmi, the house of Hajj Abu Faisal, Faisal from Ayn al-Basha, regarding, it is authentic in the edition between parentheses from 'Abadah.
The Shaykh : What is wrong with them now? What is your question?

The Shaykh : And may Allah bless you, you know, so adhere to it.
