Ruling On Taking Knowledge From Those Who Defend The People Of Falsehood | Shaykh Zayd ibn Muḥammad al-Madkhalī The Questioner: May Allāh reward you with good. The questioner says: “Can knowledge be taken from a student of knowledge who defends his Shaykh who has considerable errors even though he is from the scholars who are well-grounded in knowledge?” Shaykh Zayd ibn Muḥammad al-Madkhalī: “Knowledge is not taken from the one who defends falsehood. Knowledge should not be taken from those who defend the people of religious innovation and misguidance such that their defense involves falsehood. But rather knowledge is taken from the people of truth and those who are just whose intention is [advocating] the truth, spreading it and aiding it. As for those who promote falsehood, then knowledge is not to be taken from them and they are not to be dignified.” Translated by: Abul-Layth Qāsim Mutiva
