The Shaykh : He says, what is your opinion of a man who sold a book to another man that contains errors in creed, and he did not know, and then what is your opinion of Tafsir Ayat al-Ahkam?
The questioner : By al-Sabuni.
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good. The one that contains errors in creed is corrected.

The Shaykh : By Allah, I have not read it, but I looked at some of the verses, and it is good.

The Shaykh : I do not say about the book, because I have not read it all, but in some of the verses I read, it is good.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : ... but I have not read the book so that I can say, and there are people who are attacking it fiercely, and there are people who want that, but it is obligatory for a person to speak the truth and speak with justice, accepting what is correct in it and rejecting what is wrong in it, and I have not read the whole book, but I reviewed some of the verses of rulings and they are good, its presentation of the verses is good, and its evidence is good.
