The Duty of Preachers and Reformers in Clarifying Tawhid
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh Salih, what is the duty of preachers and reformers in clarifying the realization of tawhid (the oneness of Allah), explaining tawhid, and its virtue, O Shaykh?
Answer:
Their duty is immense. Teachers in schools spread tawhid, forbid shirk (associating partners with Allah), and raise students on the correct creed. The preachers of the congregational mosques also have an immense duty to clarify to people the matters of their religion and their creed, and to observe the violations that occur and point them out in the sermon without naming the specific person. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he saw something and wanted to forbid it in the Friday sermon, would say, "What is the matter with a group of people doing such and such?" Yes.
