salaam alaykum I have registered but the system refuses to recognize me, hence the anonymous post. A few days back we visited a muslim brother in our locality during our weekly visitations. While we were at the end of our little talk, his roommate walked in. The roommate was courteous, listened to us for less than 2 minutes, interjected to raise some questions that belied his confusion regarding his aqeedah (he is muslim, desi, and fob, btw). We asked him whether he has consulted a scholar regarding this or not, to which he replied in the negative, except for an email he sent way back in time. We asked that this is something that can not be resolved through emails. We asked him to personally go and meet a scholar and inshallah all his doubts will be put to rest. We promised that we'll provide him with some addresses of scholars that he can go and meet. But he is planning to move to Virginia very soon. A friend recommended Ali Tamimi. There must be some others as well, but I have not enough information to forward to the brother. So please reply with addresses of scholars asap. Jazakallah. |

As salaamu alaykum, i don't know any one who is more difficult to catch than Ali Tamimi, muchless having a peronsal one and one meeting with him, so you can forget that! And i am not speaking just like that but from personal experience. And this in now way takes away from his good traits. However, you can contact the mashaykh at the Institute of Islamic and Arabic Sciences in America in Virginia {www.iiasa.org.}, these guys are some of the most qualified around town, but their English may not be that up to mark, especially explaining matters of aqeedah which might be difficult to explain in simple English (the level these shuyukh are basically at). If things are not resolved by then (and the matter is one of seriousness), you can contact me and i can give you the numbers of some brothers who may be able to assist you all, for there are many knowledgable brothers in the area who speak English and Arabic very well and are tight in their aqeedah. And knowing shaykh Yusuf, he himself might refer you to those shuyukh themselves at the Institute of Islamic and Arabic Sciences in America for he himself is always there. |
