Should we warn against the memorization circles that ruin the minds of the youth?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people spread the claim that the Qur'an memorization circles are the ones who ruin the youth and call for declaring people disbelievers and insulting the state. Should one be wary of these circles? And what is your opinion of those who say this?

Answer:
The circles are a charitable endeavor, and teaching the Qur'an is a charitable endeavor. If it is known about a person or persons that they use deviance in their ideas and indoctrinate the students with these matters, then they must be reported and they must be removed from the Qur'an memorization circles. The circles are not prohibited; rather, the individuals who exploit them for terrorist or deviant ideas are prohibited.
They do not leave the teachers whose ideas are of this type to continue teaching the students; they are removed. If they are foreigners, they are deported to their country. If they are citizens, they are removed from teaching and the necessary undertaking is taken from them to avoid these ideas. Yes.
