The questioner : The statement that the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and also Sahih Muslim 53, is the intention that it is general for every era, or only for his era?
The Shaykh : The apparent meaning of the hadith is generality for every era, but as I told you: that does not mean that every individual from these people is preferred over every individual from those people, rather, among these people there are those who possess the attributes of those people or more.
