Yahya Ibn Khaleed (Rahimahu Allah) said:
" Do not respond to anyone until you have understood their words, for that will cause you to respond to what they have not said , and thus confirm your own ignorance. Rather you must understand his speech properly. So when you understand him, then respond. And do not rush to answer before asking for clarity . And do not be shy to seek clarity when you do not understand . for verily answering before understanding is sheer idiocy! So if you do not know before asking , then ask!! Then it will come to you Your questioning and seeking clarity is more praiseworthy and better for you then being silent and incapable of expressing yourself!!"
