Mufti Sahib is entitled to his own opinion. I am no expert in languages and the mannerisms present in the various languages, but is this one of Mufti Shaib's area of specialty, seeing that he already said he is not a specialist in certain areas.
I just hope certain people don't take this as another reason to give urdu language more importance or make it seem more religious than he english language as is still common among some people in the west.

You (all) like your fancy cars and your thing (what do you call it …CD???) and you put it in your cars and you listen and you read on (what do you call it …Internet???), is this how knowledge comes? Knowledge come reading (with depth).
Whats wrong with reading over the internet on your kindle? Its almost the same as reading from a book, even though even I prefer books rather than ebooks. And a laymen seeking to learn some basics may prefer to listen rather than read, whats wrong with this?

[quote]Mufti Saheb (HA): Jamaats are travelling around the world, Ulama are travelling around the world, I am in this age and condition travelling around the world, is it not an effort to counter Baatil?
Mufti Saheb (HA): Our Darul-uloom (Deoband) already has a site for people but not much importance and emphasis is put on it. But Tableeghi Jamaat is even behind us (in these matters).
