Anyone who benefits another concerning a religious matter | Imam Ibn Taymīyyah
Ibn Taymīyyah رحمه الله stated:
«كل من أفاد غيره إفادة دينية هو شيخه فيها، وكل ميت وصل إلى الإنسان من أقواله وأعماله وآثاره ما انتفع به في دينه فهو شيخه من هذه الجهة، فسلف الأمة شيوخ الخلفاء قرنا بعد قرن»
Anyone who benefits another concerning a religious matter, then the former becomes his sheikh in that particular matter. Likewise, a dead person who's sayings, deeds, and teachings reach others (from those alive) becomes their sheikh from this angle; thus the early generations of this ummah are the shuyookh of the later generations, century after century.
