Al-Albānī: Take the Opinion of Specialized Scholars Over Others

The great scholar, Shaikh Al-Albānī, may have mercy on him, said:

[T]he opinion of a scholar specialized in his [field of] knowledge is [to be used as] as evidence over one not specialized; it is not allowed to reject [his opinion] except with stronger evidence.
