This argument hardly holds any weight. If Shaykh (Mawlana) Yunus Patel could sit and reply to emails from the Haram Shareef of Madinah then who are the young Mawlanas who most of the time do sit in their luxurious offices?

See this post:

Brother,


Firstly, ulama are human beings with different life circumstances. Just because Alim A manages to answer emails promptly, it does not mean that Alim B is necessarily able to do so. Secondly, it is not wajib for them to sit and answer emails all day. Just because there are a few ulama who spend considerable amount of time doing that, it does not mean that it has to be done by all and every alim. I have periods where I receive over a hundred emails a day, and I can assure you, some will never get read, let alone get a respond. Maybe these young and arrogant Maulanas just happen to be forced to answer specific questions, and ignore questions that you can find answers for online or at the local masjid if you only excerted yourself a little bit. They spend their lives studying the Deen so that they can benefit their communities, yet they get lousy pay, lack of respect, and loads of complaints. How is that for motivation?
