"...I have come
to this land to seek knowledge"

Concerning
the Muhaddith, the Shaykh - Hammaad
ibn Muhammad al-Ansaaree (rahima-hullaah),
it has been narrated by his son 'Abdul-Awwal:
"My
father said:
"I
entered al-Masjid
an-Nabawee
and saw a man speaking to a group of people in a foreign language.
So one of them approached me and said to me:
"Do
you know who we are?"
I said:
"I
don't know".
So
he said:
"We
are (from) the Jamaa'ah
at-Tableegh, and we have six principles" - so I wrote
them down.
And
he said:
'"I
would like you to come out (khurooj) with us".
So
I said to him:
"What
will I do?"
And
he said:
"Do
what we do"
So
I said to him:
"I
have not come (here) to leave, (rather), I have come to this
land to seek knowledge".
So
when I went to Makkah
I found out alot about them, and that being by way of the
(Madrasah) as-Sowlatiyyah, since it belongs to them. And their
going out (khurooj) - there is no good in any of it - since
they do not teach the people anything."
