Question:
He says: Some means are used in calling people to Allah, and among these means is gathering in a dark place, where a person preaches about the grave, Paradise, the Fire, and the Hereafter, and reminds people of the verses of promise and warning. What is the ruling on this means?
Answer:
Reminding people with the Qur'an and with promises and warnings is prescribed, but the darkness has no basis. Holding it in a dark place is a bid'ah (religious innovation) and one of the newly invented matters.
