Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: There is a house for a group of Sufis that has been designated for holding mawlid celebrations and their specific gatherings, such as tarawih in Ramadan. Should we report them to the authority?

Answer:
Yes, if you know that this house is prepared for reviving bid'ah (religious innovations), prepared for reviving bid'ah, and for secluding themselves from the congregation in the mosque, then this is wrong, and it is obligatory for you to report them to the authority, the Authority for Promoting Virtue and Forbidding Wrongdoing. Yes.
