Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Excuse me, Shaykh, you mentioned in *Tammam al-Mannah* that spending on charitable projects and hospitals, and such matters, is not in the cause of Allah. So how, for example... these matters, I mean, is there another way to collect funds?
The Shaykh : Let me hear the exact wording you are attributing to me.
The questioner : You say: Spending is not in the cause of Allah.
The Shaykh : No, no, let me hear it so that I can open the book now. Where is this phrase?
The questioner : In *Tammam al-Mannah*.
The Shaykh : Tell me the page.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Tell me the page.
The questioner : I forgot the page. I remember the phrase well.
The Shaykh : No, I do not trust your memory because I do not know you, but I know my book. If you tell me the page, I will open it immediately, and then I will be able to answer you. But I cannot rely on a memory that is unknown to me.
