“This country apply ethical manners, etiquette and morality in respect to older people, to a figure and a scholar who participated in keeping this country to become baldatun thoyyibatun wa rabbun ghafur with religious values,” he told Jurniscom on Saturday ( 04.02.2017).

“Reflection of a man will appear on his words and behavior, the public will judge who he really is from what he did,” he said.
He quoted a hadith, “including those of my people who do not glorify people who are older than us, love who are younger than us, and did not know the rights of a scholar”. [Ahmad: V / 323 and al-Hakim. Said ash-Shaykh al-Albaniy: Hasan]
