There is no harm in acquiring knowledge online from those qualified to provide it. This acquisition serves the same purpose as direct oral transmission. We must utilize these modern means to serve the religion and spread knowledge. There is no harm in collective learning, as it is one of the inherited methods of teaching knowledge and has no connection to Sufi collective remembrance ().
