The questioner : This is my testimony and my notes regarding the Shaykh known as al-Harari or al-Habashi. He said, "We went to him, and he advised us to memorize the *Alfiyyah* of al-Iraqi, the *Alfiyyah* of al-Iraqi." I found that this al-Harari has a group in Jordan who attribute their state to him. What do you say about that in a brief statement that we can put in a book?
The Shaykh : He is deviant.
The questioner : A statement to include in a book, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : How?
The questioner : A statement; if you wish to say something, we will include it in the book, if Allah wills, in the history of groups.

The questioner : With great regret?
The Shaykh : With great regret, due to the emptiness of the Lebanese lands of anyone who openly calls to following the Book and the Sunnah, he was able to gather some Muslim youth around him and misguide them with him into far-reaching misguidance. Therefore, you find them enthusiastic without guidance with Shaykh al-Habashi, and they declare disbelievers everyone who is not on his path. His madhhab in 'ilm al-kalam is Ash'ari.
