Question : Some endowment offices in some countries are run by the Sufis. Or by an innovator. If the committed youth there are able to establish the Friday prayer, even if the excess is theirs, is it

Answer : No, it is not permissible. It is said: If this Sufi is a man who has gone outside of Islam, then it is obligatory to remove him. And if his Sufism does not take him outside of Islam, and he has been appointed by the rulers, then it is not permissible to oppose him.
