Is it permissible to publicly expose the one being advised when necessary?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner: If one advises a person who has made a mistake and he does not return to the right, and his tapes and books have spread, containing error and misguidance, is it permissible to expose him and warn people against his error?

Answer:
If you advised him and he did not accept, the responsibility is on him. You have fulfilled the obligatory duty, and the responsibility is on him. If someone asks you, saying, "What do you say about such-and-such a book?" you say, "It contains errors; it contains such-and-such an error." You point out the errors in it. Yes, if someone asks you, yes.
