Hazrat Ibrahim Khawwaas Rahmatullahi alaih said:
“A man does not become an Aalim (Moulana/Mufti) with only textual (book/Kitaab) knowledge.
In reality:
An Aalim (Moulana/Mufti) is he whose Amal (practical life) conforms to his knowledge (Ilm).
He practices in accordance with the precepts of the Qur’an Majeed and follows the Sunnah of Rasulullah Sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
His prime objective and pursuit are the Pleasure of Allah Ta’ala.
Such a man is a true Aalim (Moulana/Mufti) even if his textual knowledge is minimal.”
Our comment:
Choose true Ulama to follow, listen to and consult with and not Ulama who legalize what is Haraam, for example:
Appear on TV
Come on ‘Islamic’Radio stations
Go to marriage conferences
Are present for weddings in halls
Allow photos to be taken
Support the MMB Bill
And the list goes on….
