Assalamu alaykum warahmatullah.
There is some news about shaykh Abdullah ibn Abdul-Azeez al-Aqeel (hafidahullah), that he is in coma. Some problems with his health, Allahu a'lam. He is about 95 years old! He is the only one who is alive from the famous students of the great scholar Abdurrahman as-Sa'di (rahimahullah), who wrote "Tafsir as-Sa'di".
Shaykh Abdullah bin Aqeel is the IMAM of HANABILAH of our time.
May Allah preserve him!
Here is his biography: http://www.turntoislam.com/forum/showthread.php?t=58309
The shaykh:
Abdullah bin Amr bin Al Aas (ra) narrates:
I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "Allah does not take away the knowledge, by taking it away from (the hearts of) the people, but takes it away by the death of the religious learned men till when none of the (religious learned men) remains, people will take as their leaders ignorant persons who when consulted will give their verdict without knowledge. So they will go astray and will lead the people astray." Bukhari 1.100
Make du'a for him!!
And for our other Senior Scholars!
Allahumma ihfadh ulama Ahlussunnah.
