The one who persists in shaving his beard, or smoking, or letting his garment hang below the ankles: Is it obligatory to boycott him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Is it obligatory to boycott the one who persists in shaving his beard, or smoking, or letting his garment hang below the ankles?

Answer:
If boycotting him will deter him and cause him to abandon this matter, then yes, it is obligatory to boycott him. But if it has no effect on him, and perhaps it will only increase him in it, then this boycotting has no value with him. However, you must advise him and rebuke him. Yes.
