The answer

It is not possible to judge the public's approval of the works of Sheikh Ahmed Shakir and Anwar Al-Baz without asking the people and surveying their opinions, and whether their admiration is specific to the work of one of them or encompasses the work of both. We advise students of knowledge to benefit from the efforts of scholars, pray for them, strive to learn and act upon the texts of revelation, and encourage others to do the same, without getting preoccupied with comparisons that distract them from the original guidance, which is adherence to what was revealed to the Prophet, peace be upon him.
