Oftentimes, we hear people, It's the scholars' fault.

00:00:02 --> 00:00:03

It's the ulama's fault. They like to blame

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

the ulama. Maybe the problem is we need

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

to blame the

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

to blame the ignorant ones. Here's an example.

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

Abu is hap shirazi a sheikh in the

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

shafi'i madheb, who he saw the prophet in

00:00:15 --> 00:00:16

a dream call him a sheikh, and that's

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

why all the Ulema, they call him a

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

sheikh, if say Abu is haq, nobody knows

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

who you're talking about. You say a sheikh,

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

people know who you're talking about.

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

You know he studied with Tabari

00:00:27 --> 00:00:29

not the writer of the tafsir, he studied

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

with Abu Taib, but Tabari for almost 16

00:00:31 --> 00:00:32

years,

00:00:32 --> 00:00:35

and he refused to teach, write, or share

00:00:35 --> 00:00:36

any content

00:00:36 --> 00:00:39

until his Sheikh approved him.

00:00:39 --> 00:00:42

Now how many people are sharing content,

00:00:42 --> 00:00:45

trying to teach, trying to explain Islam,

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

and they have not sit at all?
