The Shaykh’s advice to the one who visits someone without an appointment, and is told: “And when it is said to you, return, then return”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is your opinion when we visited you without an appointment?
The Shaykh : My opinion is: when it is said to you, return, then return.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : ... .
The questioner : We tell you: why did we visit you?
The Shaykh : The poet says:
“And nothing is sound in the minds *** If the day needs a proof”
So this love for the sake of Allah is clear and apparent entirely, but why are you...? Since you are reminded of the previously mentioned verse:[An-Nur 24:28] You, praise be to Allah, did not burden yourselves or knock on the door until it was said: “I knocked on the door until my strength failed, so when my strength failed...” So you did not knock on the door.
The questioner : Yes, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : So why did it become in your heart when I spoke to you...?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : In any case, I consider what happened in your heart to be proof of your love... and the mistake is “often a harm is beneficial.”
The questioner : Guide us, O Shaykh, may Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : That he guides us and you to wherever you are guided.
The questioner : Okay, you came to us...
The Shaykh : And may Allah benefit us with you, is this supplication permissible or not?
The questioner : What, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : May Allah benefit us with you.
The questioner : You mentioned it, O Shaykh...
The Shaykh : Yes, may Allah benefit us with you, with your supplication, with your remembrance, etc.
The Shaykh : My opinion is: when it is said to you, return, then return.

وَإِنْ قِيلَ لَكُمُ ارْجِعُوا فَارْجِعُواThe questioner : Yes, O Shaykh.
