Default good scholars to follow

i am back in the fold of islam(alhumdullillah) but i need to learn more from a scholar. even if i just read articles, learning is needed.

so what are some good scholars that you know of? i dont care if they are salafi or sufi, just as long as they are sunni. i want to look into them and see if they are decent.

In terms of fiqh, I would say Mufti Taqi Usmani.

In terms of aqeedah, I would say Shaykh Ninowy.

In terms of the history of the Sahabah, Imam Anwar al Awlaki.

In terms of Aqeedah, I would highly recommend Yasir Qadhi. No one in North America had more impact on me than Shaykh Yasir - he is one of the most eloquent english speakers out there and he has knowledge to back it up. Anwar Al-Awlaki is also one of the best, a great historian and a powerful speaker. Other good scholars/speakers to listen to:

- Ali At-Tamimi
- Bilal Philips
- Yusuf Estes
- Khalid Yasin
- Muhammad AlShareef
- Yasir Birjas
- Safi Khan
- Jamal Zarabozo
- Waleed Basyouni

And if you keen on taking Islamic classes, then I would highly recommend AlMaghrib Institute.

You can also listen to recordings of shaykh Nuh's suhbas at the Shadhili Tariqa Website

I also recommend listening to shaykh Hussain Abdul Sattar's tafsir lectures a Sacred Learning - Traditional Islamic Learning, and Imam Zaid Shakir at New Islamic Directions
