Answer 3

Alhamdulillah I love all those scholars who have strived for this deen. i prefer to take & read more from olden scholars coz there effort can't be comparable with the easy access to Islaamic knowledge of today.

& the best I like about our old scholars is that they appreciated each others work & praised them even if they differed in their opinions.

May Allah enlighten their graves with noor & give them the reward for bringing Islaam to us today in such an easy manner.
