The carrier of the flag of the noble science of al-Jarh wat-Ta'deel today, the Muhaddith, al-'Allaamah Shaykh Rabee' Ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullaah) has stated in his praise for the Muhadith, the 'Allaama, Shaykh of Hadeeth and the Imaam of the salafis Muhammad Nasr ud-Deen al-Albaani....

"for many centuries no one has reached to where Shaykh al-Albaani has reached.

I hold the opinion, that in study of books, neither Ibn Taymeeyah, nor Ibn Hajr reached him in the study of books."
