The Shaykh : One of them read in the book *I'lam al-Muwaqqi'in* that the opinion of Ibn Taymiyyah is that the Companions reached a consensus on the permissibility of the deferred [mahr], as is the practice of people today; so what is your answer to this?
It is obligatory for the one who reads to understand, and after that to compare what he understood with what he hears, and he should also have understood what he heard.
