The Shaykh’s advice to students and attendees to be frank in their questions.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Now, let us move on to the questions. I urge you to make your questions clear and frank as much as possible, because frankness in a question indicates the sincerity of the questioner and that he seeks to reach the truth. Umm Salim, a woman, came and said:
O Messenger of Allah, is the full ritual bath obligatory for a woman if she has a wet dream? يا رسول الله، هل على المرأة من غسل إذا هي احتلمت
Sahih Ibn Hibban 8:140
She was frank. A woman who had been divorced by her husband three times was married to a man, but he did not have intercourse with her, and she was not pleased with him. She wanted to return to her first husband, so she came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said to him:
I married so-and-so, and he has nothing with me but the like of a tassel on a garment. And she held her garment and shook it. إني نكحت فلاناً وليس معه إلا مثل هدبة الثوب. وأمسكت بثوبها ونفضته
By this, she meant that he had not had intercourse with her; he had nothing with her. This is a statement that a man might not be able to express, but she was a frank woman. So frankness, as it is said, is comfort. We ask Allah for success for us and for you.
Yes.
