one person who just wants to memorize one individual's narrations they don't want to memorize all that they just want one scholar they just want to stick with his narrations and they want to take all his ahadith رجل يريد ان يحفظ حديث رجل ينواح يدن بعينه he specifically wants to read one particular person's narration بحديث يمنطل عليهم whose narration do you see that he should go for which person do you think he should just sit and memorize all his ahadith now of course this question it means a person whose narrations are authentic a person whose narrations are jamir or comprehensive meaning if you memorize all his narrations you have a great portion in the religion that's the person he's asking for right and a person who's امام who's reliable of course احمد سليحفظ حديثة مالك لأهي ممارسة حديثة المالك عبد البرمان شو زي انس كتاب الانتقاء امنا بحاتم كتاب جرح التعديل الامام الدهبي السدب امامه مالك he said sheikh of islam حجة الأمة امامه دارج يدره that's his description he said he's sheikh of islam he's حجة الأمة he's the hudja and the proof of this umma he is امام دارل يدره دارل يدره he's the imam of Medina دارل يدره is the place of the prophet came to earth and he left Makkah امام الدهبي also said he said وطالب مالك للعلم وطالب مالك للعلم امام مالك سوط knowledge وهو بضر عشرة سنة and he was owning in his teens between 13 to 19 وتأهل للفتح وان امامه مالك this is the Hibisthenus and he became a person who was permitted to give fatwa he had the rights he had the instrument he had the knowledge he had the understanding he had the capability معنى تأهل للفتح he was the right individual to do what fatwa وجلس للإفادة he sat down to benefit وله إحدى وإشرون سنة and he was only 21 years of age امام مالك was how much how old was he he was only 21 years of age and he was what he was مؤهل he had the rights he was permitted to give fatwa and he was permitted to sit down and to benefit the people he was allowed to who? امام مالك امام عشف this is the break it's finished امام I am by him وتأهل للفتح وجلس للإفادة وله إحدى وإشرون سنة هل جاء أمام بح أمام بح أمام بح هل هدق أمام وتأهل للفتح he was the right candidate to give fatwa وجلس للإفادة he sat down to benefit وله إحدى وإشرون سنة and he was what 21 years of age now pay attention he said about himself he's 21 years of age but what did he say ما جلس تو I never sat down to speak or to give fatwa or to answer questions إلا بعد أن شهد لي سبعونا until I was permitted by 70 scholars from the scholars of the Ummah of that time scholars of Medina they said to me yes no problem yes yes yes 70 أرولا ما gave him they have been went on to say it يلسل على منوبلا first volume paid 55 he says وحدة عنه جماعة many scholars many individuals narrated from him وهو حي شاب طريل he was a young chap وقصده طلبة العلم من الآفاق في آخر دولة أبي جعفر المنصور وما بعد ذلك people intended they intended they intended to seek knowledge from him all over the world from the time of the government from the time of أبي جعفر المنصور's leadership and after that and it became more he became he became المنملك became more busy وزدحمه عليه في خلافة تبراش الرشيد وإلى أمات the time of Harul Al-Rashid he became even more would you call it busy people occupied people came until he died المنملك students were leaving him so he take a benefit from it which is تبه أريده أنه نبه a point which I want to bring to your attention which is brothers you can see Malik was young he was 21 he was 21 years of age and there are many people due to lack of knowledge they would think that age is what determines whether a knowledge should be taken from a person and that is incorrect it's wrong but many ulama who were very young in age well if you look at the generations that you see where the prophet عليه وسلم would say that the hour will strike the hour will strike if knowledge is sought when it's taken from the youngsters the young ones many thought that this particularly specifically means anyone whose age is young if knowledge is sought from him he shouldn't or knowledge shouldn't be sought from him صح and those narrations they don't mean that what they mean الأصغر mentioned by ابن عبد البرق in this book جامع بيان العلم وفضلي from عبد الله من المبارك that the one أصغر means what it means the innovators the innovators the beginner he's considered a small he's not a big he's not someone who's big in the eyes of أهل السلم they'll belittle them أكابر is anybody who's what you know what a kabeer is أكابر is anybody who has knowledge and his knowledge is in line with those who are greater than him in knowledge if a person's statement does not exit it doesn't leave the كلام of the كبار علماء of our time his كلام is in line with the كلام of الشيخ ابن باز his كلام is in line with the كلام of الشيخ محمد ناصر الدين and ألباني is in line with الشيخ محمد صالح عثيمي they will say this individual if he's teaching knowledge just in line with these and in line with الشيخ محمد عبد الوهاب and in line with the كلام of ابن تيمر حماه الله and ابن القيب ابن رجب ابن كثير and other than them then this individual he is kabeer he's somebody he's considered from the أكابر وإن قلة سنو أم وإن صور سنو even if he's ages little and as the poet said وكم من صغير لا حنته لا حظته عناية فحتاجت إليه الأكابر وكم من صغير how many people wayan لا حظته عناية من الله فحتاجت إليه الأكابر how many people wayan in age but the elders were in need of them they came and they took knowledge from them so when we say a person is young and we're not going to take knowledge from him is when he is either in a beta or that individual's knowledge is not in line with what the علماء he's not in line with them he's speaking from his own wings and desires you can see مالك ابن ألس he is speaking when he's a young young he's a young and you all know محمد الله عبدالله he has authored his كتاب التوحد and he was only 25 years of age scholars who are now bids are white شيخ فوزان شيخ عبد العزيز عالي الشيخ مفتي السعودية مفتي ابن باز شيخ عبدالله محميد الشيخ صالح اللوحيدان and others they will explain كتاب التوحد and the author was 25 years of age صحيح the author who wrote it was 25 years of age the scholars that are reading it now are old in age صحيح because the issue is that for them it is not the number it's the knowledge and the mind on this individual and how many people are كبيروا في السنة صغيروا في العلمة he's old in age but he's young in what do you call it he's young in knowledge فلا يلتفطوا إلي no one's going to say because your age is big and your beard is white we're going to take knowledge from him صحيح no when he does it that's why sometimes this concept gets pushed by so and so he's young who gave him تسكية who gave him التسكية and this is التسكية and this is also another problem قضية of age which is being taken incorrectly and misunderstood incorrectly and the other issue is the concept of what التسكية who praised you from the العلمة the تسكية according to the العلمة is of two types there's one called تسكية to عيان and تسكية to العلم تسكية to العيان means what تسكية to عيان means you as an individual تسكية عبد الرحمن حسن you as an individual تسكية تسكية from a sheikh he gives you by name فولان إبن فولان the person is being praised by a sheikh a scholar praising him by name the scholar says فولان يؤخذ عنه العلمة this person knowledge is taken from him knowledge is taken from him يدرسوا على فولان go and take knowledge from this person خذوا عيان who take from him this is the highest of levels تسكية it's a high level of praise no doubt the second one is تسكية to العلم تسكية to العلم means you may not be praised by a scholar no scholar has actually praised you okay and no scholar has actually said anything in praise of you but what is it that praises you here your own knowledge when this person is looked at when this person is observed when this person is looked at his knowledge is in accordance to the Kitab and the Sunnah و لا يخالف العلماء إلا كابل he is not in a position to the كلمة of the kibar he is in line with the again he is in line with عبد الرحمن he is in line with الشيخ الناصف رحمه الله الجميع okay he is in line with العلماء كمنوا كثير دهبي ابن رجب ابن تيميا ابن قين he is in line with the Salaf of this Ummah he is in line with the scholars he doesn't leave the Karam he doesn't have his own opinions that he comes he does taqirat he affirms ما يقرره العلماء السنة he affirms و العلماء of the Sunnah he affirms this individual will say when we look at him even if we don't have العلماء that praised him زكاه العلماء his knowledge has now praised him his knowledge has praised this individual and it should be sought from him and knowledge should be taken from him and is of benefit for the people and anybody who stands in the way of his and stops him from teaching or stops that or says that this person's knowledge should not be sought from him he is a قاطع الطريق he is blocking the Ummah from benefiting from that which is beneficial for them people sometimes live in countries where this is the best person that they have this is the best that they have this is the best person they have he is one strong student of knowledge he is again in line with the كلام العلماء his كتاب سنة his عكيد الصحيح السريمة are you with me brothers and people say we won't take knowledge from him why? because no scholar praised him just because of that that's incorrect because he's been praised by what? by his knowledge he has been praised what is it that praised him? his knowledge praised him his knowledge praised him نعم الإمام مالك رحمه الله so that was a فائدة that we need to take on board الإمام مالك رحمه الله he's as I said he's a صاحب السنة he's an Imam in سنة and the meaning by the word سنة is عقيدة here of course okay the intent by the word السنة عند المتقدمينة by the early generation of scholars is that it's meant by عقيدة he was an Imam in عقيدة like for example الإمام مالك used to say ليس الجدال في الدين بالشيء argumentation and debates are not in the religion whatsoever there's no place in the dean meaning he meant by debating with أهل البدع and consistently argumentation with them this is not from the religion he also used to say أهل الأهواء بيس القوم لا يسلموا عليهم وإعتزالوا وحبوا إليهم الإمام مالك used to say the people of innovation are the worst of people سلام should not be given to them they shouldn't be greeted one should not say to them السلام عليهم shouldn't وإعتزالوا هم and they boycotted and left أحبوا إليهم to leave their gatherings and to leave their surroundings and to stay away from them is more beloved to them الله أكبر الإمام مالك at his time he was saying that he even went to the state he even went to the الإمام مالك to the level of saying لا ينبغ الإقامة في أرض it is not permissible to reside in a land يقول العمل فيها بغير الحق which the people what they are doing is in clear cut opposition to the truth وسببوا الإسلافة and the salaf are insulted as well and the salaf are what? إنسالت no one should reside in a land إمام مالك يقول where the deal is being opposed and the hack is being opposed and the salaf are being insulted 24 7 you shouldn't be in a land like that are you with me brothers so what would he say if you saw us and in the land and the place that we are in so this is this is how much it meant to him سلاف those who insult the salaf you say something about the salaf إمام مالك to him was big you may now see a person who insults the salaf and he is still praised are you with me brothers he insults the salaf and he is still praised people are praising him they are bigging him up they are pushing him up are you there even belittled the words of the salaf like one man who recently died may Allah SWT forgive him he is still reading the books of the salaf who will dry your heart they will learn you will find from reading the works of the salaf in the عقيدة they will just what قصفة القلب it will make your heart it will harden your heart he is referring to books by أحمد رحم الله and others recently when he died one of the most the figure heads of this country when people look up to him and they call him he wrote an article and praise of him the point is a salaf an image of salafs hardship and their work كتاب خلق أفعال العلق which Bukhari wrote in the situation he wrote it and Imam Ahmed كتاب and the time he wrote it and the way he wrote it and Imam أمربها and the time he wrote it and the situation he wrote it all of that no consideration is given to that are you with me and the way it's been spoken against are you there brothers but this individual who is today alive his statements is respected and he's looked after he don't say anything about him he's on out إنه الله وإنه إله رضي ألم أمارك said القرآن وكلام الله the Quran is what the speech of who is the speech of Allah look at his عقيدة he's a Imam the Quran is the speech of Allah he also said من قال القرآن ومخلوق look at the Salaf how they harsh they were when it came to consequences of actions what did he say من قال القرآن ومخلوق anyone who says the Quran is created you you you he's beaten and he's lashed and he's in prison until he repents and Imam أرضي brings it in his the Salaf they had this but the person who does this is who everybody no no no the leader knows this the Muslim leader he does this he takes it on himself the leader to take this person to imprison them to lash them because the religion he's the second I'm a Malik I also said الله في السباة الله is above his throne I'm a Malik رحم الله he said الله is what في السباة he said that عبد الله إبن أحمد نويت دسنس كتاب السنة okay الآجوري كتاب الشريعة عبد البر كتاب التمهيد so anybody who says to you أنا مالكي المدهب أم مالكي المدهب and he says to you أم أشعري العقيدة this is the Imam he follows and look how Allah سبحانه وتعالى protected the four imams each and every one of them observe them what do they say to you pay attention he will say to you في الفروعي أنا حنفي في الأصولي أنا ماتوريدي في سلوك أنا نقشبني أنا بريلوي are you with me brothers pay attention to this Allah has protected their tongues with their own mouths to say that I am a حنفي خلاص and he means that the حنفي is a maturity he knows this note he knows that Imam أم أبو حنفي was a maturity he knows that Imam مالك was not an أشعري so he will say to you أشعري في الأصولي مالكي في الفروعي are you with me Allah has protected his imams these four imams they are upon the understanding of the Sunnah are you there brothers they are upon the understanding of the Sunnah and the Jamaah does that make sense brothers
