Reference: Muhaddith al-‘Asr Muhammad Naasiruddeen al-Albaanee – Page 40

Once, Shaykh al-Albaanee (rahima-hullaah), whilst sitting in his car, was approached by a man who asked:

“Are you, Shaykh al-Albaanee?”

At this, the Shaykh was reduced to tears, and when he was asked as to the reason for him crying, he replied:

“It is befitting for a person to strive hard with himself and not to feel proud as a result of the people’s statements [of praise].”

He is a graduate of the Islaamic University of Madeenah, having graduated from the Institute of Arabic Language, and later the Faculty of Sharee'ah in 2004. He currently resides in Birmingham, UK.
