The Shaykh : O Allah, respond, O Lord of the worlds.
The questioner : Our brother Abu al-Fadl saw a vision before, meaning last night. He said he saw thatThe Shaykh : Al-Albani (may Allah preserve him) was in his house. I don't know where his house is, but around his house there were trees and crops and such, which he did not recognize. He said that groups from every place had gathered against him.
The Shaykh : What Allah willed.
The questioner : Yes, they gathered against him from every place. These Islamic groups, one group and another, and another, Islamic groups from every direction, andThe Shaykh : he had Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and Tafsir Ibn Kathir.
The Shaykh : What Allah willed.
The questioner : Yes, and he said, "Bring me your elders so I can speak with them and discuss with them." They were, meaning, they were trembling and raining down, and they were grumbling and snorting, and they were gathering some of them with others, until a large crowd gathered. He said, "I saw that I came to you now." He said, "Let us go."The Shaykh : Al-Albani received news that they had surrounded him and such, so we came to you while you were sitting, and Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) created a lake of water surrounding us.
The Shaykh : What Allah willed.
The questioner : A lake of water surrounding us, and it stood between us and them.
The Shaykh : Life, life, if Allah wills.
The questioner : Yes, it stood between us and them, so they dispersed. After that, the elders of this land, the rulers and the king and others, came. They said to the Shaykh, "Proclaim your call and speak what you see as pleasing to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and do not care about anyone."
The Shaykh : What Allah willed, a true vision, if Allah wills.
The questioner : I ask Allah for that.
The Shaykh : What are the books, Professor? You will remind us.
The questioner : Praise be to Allah, our brother Fahmi will write me a list of the names of your books, if Allah wills, because I do not know that some of them have been published. I know what I have, and I will say this is what is not with me. If that pleases you, praise be to Allah. And I consider, above all else, praise be to Allah, that the book is in the library and I can buy it, but from you it has another significance.
The Shaykh : I have here a book that looks at me, and it is Sahih al-Adab al-Mufrad. Do you have it?
The questioner : Yes, praise be to Allah, I bought it this year from the exhibition.
The Shaykh : Do you have it?
The questioner : Yes, it is with Abu Hatim, what Allah willed.
The questioner : Yes, praise be to Allah, we have it. By Allah, our Shaykh, the students of knowledge, one of them sells his rifle and the tribal lands there. The rifle is a big thing, one does not give it up.
The Shaykh : Give us one.
The questioner : He sells the rifle, he sells his wife's gold, he sells such things in order to find your writings.
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you.
The questioner : We ask Allah to preserve you.
The Shaykh : In any case, with your prayers, we live.
The questioner : I ask Allah to preserve you.
The Shaykh : Do you have the entire al-Silsilah al-Sahihah?
The questioner : Yes, up to the fifth volume.
The Shaykh : And al-Da'ifah?
The questioner : Up to the fourth volume, yes.
The Shaykh : What Allah willed.
The questioner : The new edition, yes, I have this and that when the new one came out.
The Shaykh : What do we have, my brothers?
The questioner : Even our brother Abu al-Fadl says, "I want to complain to Shaykh Al-Albani (may Allah preserve him) that when he changes the books, we have to buy them again. The books change, we have to buy them again, and we are in a state that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) knows."
The Shaykh : Okay, do you know if he has Sahih al-Adab al-Mufrad?
The questioner : Yes, he has it. Abu al-Fadl bought it before us.
The Shaykh : What Allah willed.
The questioner : He bought it before us from Egypt. It was published in Egypt, and Allah brought it to you. May Allah keep you as a reserve for the Muslims.
The Shaykh : I wished that we could have the honor of serving you with some books more than what happened. Be generous, be generous with us in giving.
The questioner : May Allah preserve you, our Shaykh. Praise be to Allah, praise be to Allah. By Allah, we wish for anything.
The Shaykh : Okay, here, for example, there is nothing. Take a look, perhaps it will remind you of what you do not have...
