The importance of following the Senior Scholars

Question

Kindly inform if the following statement is attributed to Rasulullah (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam) or the respected Sahabi, Hazrat Abdullah Ibn Mas’ood (Radhiyallahu ‘anhu):

“The people will remain upon goodness so long as they take knowledge from their Scholars, their greater ones and their elders. When they take knowledge from their young ones and their foolish ones, they will be destroyed.”

Jazakumullah

Answer

This is recorded as the statement of Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn Mas’ud (radiyallahu’anhu) in the introduction of Al-Kamil of Ibn ‘Adiy, vol.1 pg.260-261 & other sources.

This golden advice of a prominent Sahabi (radiyallahu’anhu) is extremely pertinent in our era of confusion and academic disarray!

May Allah Ta’ala grant us the ability to abide by it. Ameen.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,

Also in line with the above is my blog, "Which Imam did the Sahaba follow?"

In which it is stated:

Imam Bukhari has taken proofs from the Quran and Hadith. He has quoted Hadith under the following headings:
"Hold on fast to the Jamaat of Muslims and their Imam"(page 059, Vol 1)
"One who seperates oneself from the Jamaat (of Muslims) even a hand span, will die a death of ignorance"(page 1045, Vol 2)
There is also an order even execute those who seperate themselves from the Jamaat of Muslims and their Imam."...they will leave Islam in the way an arrow leaves its bow...wherever you see them, you should kill them. Their killing will be rewardable on the day of Qiyaamah"(page 75, Vol 2)
"A group of people will emerge from amongst you, who will belittle your Salah over theirs , and your Fasts over teirs, and your actions over theirs, they will recite the Quran, which will not pass their throats (have no effect upon them), the will leave the Deen like an arrow leaves its bow" (page 756, Vol2).
These people will emerge before Qiyaamah. Only those who are deficient in age and knowledge will join them

Imams Muslims, Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Nasai also quote the same.

An internet troll like yourself doesnt really deserve any platform.

You asked a question in a new thread which I can guarantee you haven't even bothered to read.

Unfortunately for you your posts are not even displayed so you are wasting your own time more than anyone else's.
