Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem
Recently Sheikh Rabee' bin Haadi Al-Madkhali, may Allah preserve him, answered some questions about studying in Darul Hadeeth in Damaaj. Here is the English translation done by one of the students here in Damaaj, may Allah reward him and the brothers for their questions.
In the last ten days of Ramadhaan the brother Aiman Al-Adeni, may Allah preserve him, asked As-Shaykh Al-Mujaahid Rabee' bin Haadi Al-Madkhali, may Allah preserve him, about the one who warns against studying in Damaaj. So the brother ask 'O Shaykh do you advise to travel to seek knowledge in Damaaj these days'. So The Shaykh responded by saying'' Shame on you asking a question like this, you do not have a question other than this? How can I not advise to study in Damaaj?
The Shaykh also mentioned about those who prevent from the emigrating to seek knowledge in this immense place. He said, 'They are those who divert from the right path. It is a center where all sciences of the Deen are taught and studied, and by Allah no one warns from it except the one who wants to divert the people from the path of Allah.'
In conclusion, on the day of Eidul Fitr of this year 1429h (2008) Abu Fidaa As-Sudaani asked Al-Muhadith, Al-'Alaamah Shaykh Rabee Al-Madkhali, may Allah preserve him, the same question. So the Shaykh answered by saying 'this is a person of desires'. In addition, it was mentioned that the Shaykh said 'warning from Damaaj is a mistake, do not believe those who warn from Damaaj, do not believe them, but my sincere advice is for the one who is blessed with this blessing (studying in Damaaj) and given success in seeking knowledge in Damaaj, it is better that he occupies his time with seeking knowledge and does not interfere regarding the fitnah

About Me
- Khalil Al-Puerto Rikani
- I am 35 years old, and I adhere to the Salafi methodology/way. I was born in the Bronx to New York Puerto Rican (Catholic) parents. During my teenage years, I starting to learn about my history since of course they don't teach us that in school. As a teenager, I had a lot of interaction with "Latino" and African-American Muslims. That lead to me taking my shahadah during my first semester of college. I eventually earned a bachelor's of art with a double major in Arabic and political science at the State University of New York at Binghamton. My concentration was in the Middle East and North Africa Studies. In 2000, I was offered a scholarship to study at Umm Al-Qura University. I studied there from 2000 to 2005. May Allah reward King Fahd (rahimahullah) for giving me a scholarship to teach in Saudi, Amin. Alhamdulillah, I have been fortunate to have sat with several scholars in Saudi Arabia. I currently live in Saudi Arabia with my wife and two children. I also hold a master's in TESOL.
