Question posed and translated By Najeeb Al Anjelesi
Q: As salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu
O Sheikh, may Allah be kind towards you. Here in America we have a man within the field of dawah who's name is Ridwan Al Maghribi, but he is well known by his kunya Abu Muhammad. Some people here say about him that he is "A mountain of knowledge" and "For us hi is a authority -in knowledge- returned to" and he is "A sheikh" and he is this and that from descriptive terms that are considered to be praises of him. The question: Do you know this man and what is your opinion of him?
A: Sheikh Usaamah Al ‘Utaybee: Wa alaykummus salaam wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu.
This one is an ignorant layperson from the Sa'aafiqah, the people of lies and false testimony.
