The Shaykh : I have answered you, may Allah guide you, I have answered you, may Allah guide you.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : The mushaf in your pocket is like the mushaf in your heart.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : As for the mushaf in your hand, visible, that is what the verse applies to:[Al-Hajj 22:32].
The questioner : May Allah increase you in knowledge, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And may the same be for you.
The questioner: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah.
The questioner : Hello.

The questioner : Good evening, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you in good and blessing.
The questioner : How is your health? I hope you are well, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : I am very well, and praise be to Allah.
The questioner : May Allah announce good news to you.
The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
The questioner : I am ... the judge ... calling you from America.
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you, from America.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh, and bless you.
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
The questioner : Long may you live, I have a question, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh: Go ahead.
The questioner : We, O long may you work, we are at a Muslim university, and we have Muslim students, and we have an organization for Muslim students.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : And this organization, and this university, does not distinguish between Shi'ah and Sunnah.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : And today we have elections for this organization.
The Shaykh : Yes, that is right.
The questioner : And we ... are from the people of the Sunnah and the community, meaning we have nominated ourselves, and there are people from the people of the Sunnah, but they are standing with the Shi'ah.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : And they nominated a woman to be a member of this administration.
The Shaykh: Who is it?
The questioner : The Shi'ah.
The Shaykh : The Shi'ah, all right, and then?
The questioner : They nominated a woman from the people of the Sunnah.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : When she becomes a member of the administration of the Muslim Students Organization.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : The administration consists, O Shaykh, of five members, and they nominated this woman ...
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So she is a Sunni, but she is always with them and dealing with them.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So now, O Shaykh, the situation is that I might be able to take her place, the place of this woman, but there is an issue that I would have to change the information I gave to the university.
The Shaykh : What information?
The questioner : The information, O Shaykh, is that, if Allah wills, I will graduate this semester from the university and I will return to my country, but when we read the constitution of the laws of the organization, the Muslim Students Organization, whoever nominates himself for membership must have been a member for a full year to become a member, but I applied for graduation and they knew that I will graduate this term.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So it means that ... it means ... one of the solutions is that I go to the university and tell them that I delayed my graduation, or I cancel my graduation, I want to be able to be in this administration.
The Shaykh : All right, here there are two issues, as it seems to me. The first issue is that your saying you will delay your graduation, is this a truth or not a truth?
The questioner : No, O Shaykh, no, this is a truth. I thought, meaning I was thinking on the basis of the interest of the Muslims, if I tell them now that I canceled my graduation.
The Shaykh : Let me, let me, leave the justification to me.
The Shaykh : Let me, let me, leave the justification to me.
The Shaykh : If it is covered, there is nothing wrong with it, but if it is exposed, it is disliked.
The questioner : Eid, O Shaykh.The Shaykh : If it is covered and not visible, it is permissible.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : And if it is visible, it is disliked.
The questioner : All right, O our Shaykh, the verse that says:
And whoever honors the symbols of Allah
وَمَنْ يُعَظِّمْ شَعَائِرَ اللَّهِThe Shaykh : I have answered you, may Allah guide you, I have answered you, may Allah guide you.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : The mushaf in your pocket is like the mushaf in your heart.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : As for the mushaf in your hand, visible, that is what the verse applies to:
And whoever honors the symbols of Allah - indeed, it is from the piety of hearts.
وَمَنْ يُعَظِّمْ شَعَائِرَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّهَا مِنْ تَقْوَى الْقُلُوبِThe questioner : May Allah increase you in knowledge, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And may the same be for you.
The questioner: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah.
The questioner : Hello.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah.
