A discussion regarding an article published in al-Azhar magazine that refutes al-Suqaf's book *Sahih Sifat al-Salah* and gives Shaykh al-Albani his due.

The student : By the way, Shaykh, in this same issue of al-Azhar magazine, which I bought specifically to defend you.

The Shaykh : Very good.
The student : I found an article in it that refutes al-Suqaf's book *Sahih Sifat al-Salah*.
Another student: Strange.

The Shaykh: Good.
The student : And it gives al-Albani his due, and I bought the magazine for this reason.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
The student : How many pages is it?
Another student: About five or six pages.

The Shaykh: Good.
The student : We must see it, whether it is in the latest issue or the one before it.

The Shaykh : Who is the writer?
The student : The writer is an al-Azhar scholar who is not well known.

The Shaykh : You do not know him.
The student : I do not know him.

The Shaykh : Yes.
The student : But what caught my attention is that in every issue they bring a book and comment on it.

The Shaykh: Good.
The student : So he mentioned that this al-Suqaf is biased and that he was unjustThe Shaykh : and thatThe Shaykh : he has virtues; in reality, it seems he means that in this field he is not [biased], so he is fair, if Allah wills. He is not with al-Albani; he does not know al-Albani and does not know al-Suqaf.

The Shaykh : Yes, but he is fair.
The student : Fair, so I really, really, really liked this article, truly.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
The student : We must see this.
Another student: Yes, by Allah, I should have brought it with me. It is not difficult; the second-to-last issue of al-Azhar magazine has the same article that denies the existence of jinn.

The Shaykh : Does al-Azhar magazine come here?
The student : It comes, yes, Shaykh.

The Shaykh : It comes.
