This lecture was initially highlighted to us by our Salafi brother, a close friend and confidant, Ustadh Abu Tasneem, may Allah reward him with abundant good for consistently enhancing our understanding of various issues, Amin.

Upon listening to this lecture, we once again recognised the profound insights of our Salafi scholars, whose analyses and methodology are unparalleled, and how every subject they tackle is examined through the lens of this mighty and infallible religion of Islam. May Allah bless Al-Allamah Salih Aala Ash-Shaikh, grant him a long life filled with what is pleasing and beloved to Him, and continue to benefit the Ummah through his enlightening lessons and clarifications, Amin.
