As Salaam Alaikom wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatu sisters. In Shaa Allah as a sister on her journey to seek knowledge, please reply on scholars who we should seek knowledge from. Subhana Allah i reside in London and I am attempting to seek for a scholar who I can turn to for guidance as well as knowledge. It seems that sisters are almost not willing to give out information unless you are connected to someone or have the key to fit the lock. As Ustadh Mustafa has said, that reading from books makes you worse than an ignorant person astaghfir Allah. These words alone puts more fear in me than anything. Also when stating names, they are said so fast-I am getting old hahaha, that I cannot grasp the names as well as maybe I should. Allah increase us in knowledge and make us one amongst the few.. Jazak Allahuma Khairan
