The questioner : Yes, and as for the one who cannot, for example, seek knowledge, what do you advise him to do in these painful circumstances?
The Shaykh : How do you mean he cannot?
The questioner : For example, he is an ordinary person, a lover of knowledge, but busy with his profession and earning his livelihood.
The Shaykh : We advise him with the wisdom of Mu'adh ibn Jabal: "Be a scholar, or a student, or a listener, and do not be the fourth, lest you perish." He must be one of these three.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Yes, and it is not permissible for him to be occupied with earning his daily sustenance to the extent that he neglects seeking the obligatory knowledge.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : It is obligatory upon him.
The questioner : It is obligatory upon him. And regarding the sisters there, we heard that some of them, as mentioned earlier... the call to leave, and so on. What do you advise now? For example, should they participate in elections in the future, or yes?
