Mufti Menk

Dear mufti, On what grounds does Muft answer that Muft Menk is a Safafi or students studying in Saudi become salafi by default. I know of someone who graduated from Madinah but is really hanafi.. It is extreme to judge someone through association. You are both respected muftis and some of your fatwas seem harsh to the general public and now confusing us.

Perhaps a one to one with mufti Menk would be the best way forward with a conclusion shared to layman to assist our own sanity.

Regards.
