The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good...

The Shaykh : What is in it?

The questioner : Does it specify...

The Shaykh : Is it?

The questioner : Does it specify, or abrogate, or neither?

The Shaykh : No, it specifies; it is a specification. However, the earlier scholars call specification an abrogation because it abrogates the generality.
