Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some people say that responding to the opponent is a suppression of the other opinion and a cause of division among Muslims. How should one respond to this doubt?
Answer:
Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) responded to the opponent with the Noble Qur'an, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) responded to him, and the imams and scholars responded to him. Does this mean suppressing the opinion? This means clarifying falsehood and refuting falsehood, and clarifying the truth. This is necessary; this is necessary. It is necessary to clarify the truth and refute falsehood, whether one is pleased or one is angry. Yes.
