Concerning
the Imaam, the Shaykh - 'Abdul-'Azeez
ibn Baaz (rahima-hullaah),
‘Abdur-Rahmaan ibn Muhammad al-Baddaah narrates:
“It
was narrated that the Shaykh (Ibn Baaz) differed (in opinion)
with one of the Shaykhs from outside Saudi Arabia regarding
a few issues.
It
then occurred that this (non-Saudi) Shaykh came to Saudi Arabia
and the Shaykh (Ibn Baaz) invited him for lunch to his house
and honoured him. Amongst the gathering were some students,
who (turned and) said to the Shaykh (Ibn Baaz):
“This
is so-and-so who said such-and-such about you”, (at
which) the Shaykh (Ibn Baaz) silenced them.
He
(then) continued to honour his guest, and at the end of the
gathering, the Shaykh (Ibn Baaz) escorted him to the (front)
door to bid him farewell. (It was) then the (non-Saudi) Shaykh
said:
“If
it was said to me that there is someone on the face of this
earth who is from the pious predecessors, certainly I would
have said it is this man (i.e. Shaykh Ibn Baaz)”, rahimahumullaah.”
