Shaykh Muhammad Moosaa
al-Moosaa narrated:
One of the forms of his
humility is that he used to be humble to one who is below him in knowledge even
if the person is among his students. One of the examples of such is what
occurred in the year 1386 H. He came from Madeenah to Riyadh and delivered a
lecture at Daar al-‘Ilm. When he finished the lecture, questions were directed
to him. However, his Eminence turned to one of the students of knowledge who
was one of his students and said: Please, answer the question.’ But the man
refused.
Another example of his
humility is that he does not lead people in prayer whenever he offers prayer in
a masjid that has a raatib Imaam even if the Imaam insists
that he should do so. In addition, he does not refrain from saying I don’t know. He
used to say this a lot whenever he was asked a question and he does not know
the response regardless of whether it is in a private or public gathering or in
lectures or mosques or in radio broadcast.
In the year 1402 H when
the Shaykh was teaching in Haram, he was asked: Is a female child similar to a
male child with regard to shaving her hair, weighing it and giving out the
silver weight of it in charity? He – may Allaah have mercy on him – said: ‘I do
not know. Ask my brothers who are students of knowledge. They will inform you
Allaah willing.
