The questioner : I recall a hadith from Anas that he arrived in Kufah and disapproved of them, saying "I did not recognize anything except the adhan", and here he says he did not disapprove of anything except...

The Shaykh : This was in Madinah.

The questioner : In that same era, the people of Kufah were not like the people of Madinah...

The Shaykh : It is known that most of Kufah was from people other than the people of Madinah.

The questioner : The people of Madinah did not disapprove of anything except that they did not straighten the rows, and the people of Kufah said, "I did not recognize anything except this adhan."

The Shaykh : In any case, the negation may be relative, meaning a specific thing. If it is literal, it is said that the people of Kufah are not the people of Madinah.
