Footnotes:
1 Translators Note: This school in Sana’a is run by Abdul-Majeed az-Zindaanee-may Allah guide him and all of us, the Ulamaa have warned against studying there.
2 Translators Note: In the original text Shaykh Yahyaa didn’t write Noble Shaykh before his name and instead only wrote: Yahyaa bin Alee al-Hajooree Aboo ‘Abdir-Rahmaan and the shortest description of himself compared to the other Mashaykh he wrote about which is evident of his great piety and humbleness. I have added this title into the translation out of respect for him (hafithahullah).
