The Shaykh :"And make your sitting among the companions of Muhammad *** and receive from them, along with them, with excellence"
This means that you should make it as if you are with the Companions, listening to the words of whom? The words of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and seeing his actions, yes, so that you may be like them in following him.
"And receive from them what they received *** from him of faith and knowledge"
So if someone asks: How do I receive from them? We say: Praise be to Allah, this Ummah has preserved its religion through the chain of narration. Read: "It was narrated to us by so-and-so, from so-and-so, from so-and-so," until you reach the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
