The questioner : What is the meaning of the statement that "preventing harm takes precedence over seeking benefit" if you do not specify?
The Shaykh : Yes, for example, if the benefit is specific, such as prayer, one cannot leave it, for instance, out of favoring a group of people, because if I prayed in front of them, it would result in harm. Yes.
