No teachers here, only salafis..

@mukhtar, I've downloaded them, only the last 3 lessons don't work.

Salaam,
regarding "learning tasawwuf from the other side of the world"....

The recordings I gave you are meant as a learning tool, not a substitute.

Now, the person being in a remote area as you mentioned, and not having the means to have contact with 'ulama, whether for fiqh or tasawwuf....the recordings are in shaa Allah, much better than nothing. If he listens attentively, he will surely benefit.

Those who are not able to find mashaikh are offered alternatives by the mashaikh themselves; that alternative is reading/listening to the accounts of the pious people of the past.

As far as fiqh goes, the brother is correct that the most practical fiqh should be chosen; if no Maliki fuqaha are available in a place, one should adopt another fiqh which will be easier to get access to. Obviously, one may just have love for one of the aimma's madhab more than another one...we can not blame the person for that, but we should just make him aware of any considerations due to his location etc....if he still insists, we just assist him in whatever way he can...

Let me know how it goes wiht the recordings.

May Allah reward you for assisting the brother.
