Ibrahim Shuqqa's commentary on the words of Shaykh Al-Albani.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Abu Malik: You have answered, and may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And to you, if Allah wills.
Abu Malik: And you truly mentioned a delicate word when you said that doubts or desires have multiplied among people and led them astray from the straight path. I truly want to say that if the matter were limited to the disputes that occur between Muslims who claim to be upon the methodology of the Book and the Sunnah and their opponents who say that they are not upon the Book, we would say the matter is easy and simple.
The Shaykh : Yes.
Abu Malik: But, our Shaykh, may Allah bless you, now the desires and doubts have begun to surge into the chests with a severe surge, and they have begun to ascend to the minds and descend to the lowest parts of the human being, making each one of these people—or I say, may Allah forgive me, many of them—victims of them without them realizing that they are victims, but they think they are doing a good deed. Now the disputes have multiplied among the people of the same methodology.
The Shaykh : Truly... the one, the cause of it is the lack of upbringing.
Abu Malik: Exactly, our Shaykh, the lack of upbringing and the lack of knowledge as well, and offering knowledge for other than Allah the Exalted, for other than the face of Allah.
The Shaykh : Knowledge, may Allah bless you, in my opinion, in such matters, they are not hidden from themAl-Adab Al-Mufrad 55:6 but the upbringing, the upbringing.
Abu Malik: Yes, yes.
The Shaykh : And therefore I say.
Abu Malik: Yes.
The Shaykh : It is upon us, and every soul is a pledge for what it has earned, it is upon us to strive for the upbringing of those around us, starting with their children, their relatives, their neighbors, and so on, until the circle expands, if Allah wills.
Abu Malik: If Allah wills.
The Shaykh : And it encompasses many of those who are with us in the methodology but are not with us in the upbringing.
Abu Malik: Yes, by Allah.
The Shaykh : And Allah is the One to be sought for help.
Abu Malik: My master, may Allah reward you with good, our Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you
Abu Malik: Praise be to Allah, every time we come, we are first delighted and we enjoy seeing you, and you are in such a state.
The Shaykh : May Allah welcome you all.
Abu Malik: We ask Allah to combine for you the reward and the well-being.
The Shaykh : O Allah, amen.
Abu Malik: And if you are, our Shaykh, as you described yourselves, I am confined to this chair, so praise be to Allah, your knowledge circulates in the traces of the world, so it travels more than a thousand thousand times while you are sitting in the chair.
The Shaykh : I ask Allah to accept it from us.
Abu Malik: Amen, may Allah preserve you. This paper? Yes, may Allah reward you with good, our Shaykh, may Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : I have made a choice, and perhaps it remains for you to choose, for people have different tastes in what they love.
Abu Malik: I choose. If I wanted to choose, our Shaykh, I choose all of you.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good. Is this summary with you?
Abu Malik: No, I do not have it.
The Shaykh : If you borrow this, you can use it to assist in what you are engaged in.
Abu Malik: May Allah reward you with good, our Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And if you look into it.
Abu Malik: And I inform you, our Shaykh, that I have prepared what will please you to hear, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : How?
Abu Malik: I have prepared what will please you to hear.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
Abu Malik: And what will satisfy your eye.
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you
Abu Malik: And what will come to you of its news will cool your chest, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
Abu Malik: Our Shaykh, my son has delighted me and honored me by being my deputy in receiving the award, which is far less than what he deserves.
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
Abu Layla: May Allah reward you with good, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Pray for me that Allah completes His favor upon me and grants me complete well-being... I am unable to walk.
The questioner : We ask Allah the Great, Lord of the Great Throne, to heal you and grant you well-being.
Abu Malik: I always keep in mind, when I see you in such a state, and you are, praise be to Allah, in great and very great well-being, I always keep in mind the word of that man to Urwah ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) when he was afflicted with what he was afflicted with, the loss of his son and the amputation of his leg, and what also afflicted him in his body. A man came to him and said, "O Abu Muhammad, if Allah has taken your son and taken your leg, He has left for us the jewel that we need. He has left in you the intellect that we want to always have." So, our Shaykh, you are, praise be to Allah, adorned by Allah with well-being, praise be to Allah, and this intellect has filled the layers of the earth with knowledge, praise be to Allah.
The Shaykh : I have said and I continue to say, with great regret, "The jackals in our land are howling." This is the truth, and I say it from my heart, because the atmosphere is empty and vacant. Do not look at me with that look.
Abu Malik: If you are saying this, what does anyone else say?
The Shaykh : Allah is the Greatest. O Allah, forgive me and make me better than what they think, and do not hold me accountable for what they say. Allah, Allah, they have left us nothing. "The jackals in our land are howling." What is this simile? How beautiful it is.
The Shaykh : And to you, if Allah wills.
Abu Malik: And you truly mentioned a delicate word when you said that doubts or desires have multiplied among people and led them astray from the straight path. I truly want to say that if the matter were limited to the disputes that occur between Muslims who claim to be upon the methodology of the Book and the Sunnah and their opponents who say that they are not upon the Book, we would say the matter is easy and simple.

Do not envy each other. Do not hate one another. Be slaves of Allah and brothers.
لا تحاسدوا ولا تباغضوا وكونوا عباد الله إخوانا كما أمركم اللهAbu Malik: Yes, yes.
The Shaykh : And therefore I say.
Abu Malik: Yes.
The Shaykh : It is upon us, and every soul is a pledge for what it has earned, it is upon us to strive for the upbringing of those around us, starting with their children, their relatives, their neighbors, and so on, until the circle expands, if Allah wills.
