📌 Who are the senior scholars of our time that we should return to for fatwas and major contemporary issues? In this important answer, Shaykh Salih al-Luhaydan (rahimahullah) clarifies a matter that many people today misunderstand. ⚠️ Not every teacher, lecturer, or academic with knowledge is someone who should be returned to for fatwas and major issues (nawazil). - There is a clear difference between teachers who convey knowledge and the major scholars (kibar al-ulama) who are relied upon for issuing fatwas and addressing the serious matters that affect the Ummah. ❗Unfortunately, many brothers today do not recognize this distinction. - As a result, they return to the wrong people for fatwas and guidance in major issues. This can lead to confusion, mistakes, and even misguidance in matters that require the understanding and insight of the senior scholars. In this clip, the Shaykh explains who the Muslims should return to, and why it is essential to recognize the difference between those who teach knowledge and those who are relied upon for fatwa and major contemporary affairs.
