The Responsibility of Clarifying the Deviation from the Creed of the Salaf in Teaching
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh. You speak about the creed of the Salaf, and those who contradict this creed are teaching here every week, teaching matters that contradict the creed of the Salaf. What is your obligation toward these people? Is it not the responsibility placed upon your shoulders to put a limit to such people?
Answer:
The responsibility is undoubtedly great, and it is upon everyone. You are in the first position. For example, if you know that there is someone among them who misguides people and casts doubts and schools of thought that contradict the school of the righteous Salaf, you must inform the authorities. He takes charge of the country, and praise be to Allah, it is a land of Muslims, a land of Salafis, a land of people of creed and religion, who do not accept this. So if you know among the people someone who says this, it is obligatory for you to report him.
