The Ruling on Publishing Books on Apostasy and Informing People About It

Question:
The Shaykh, this is the end of the questioner's statement, and may Allah reward him with good. But regarding this issue, it appears that falling into it is common among the general Muslim population and some intellectuals who think that worldly knowledge, media, and newspapers are sufficient for it. Perhaps, out of their ignorance and negligence, they do not realize that publishing such chapters of Islamic jurisprudence may clarify to people what they are in. Is there a word to say?

Answer:
Yes, it is obligatory that this issue, and the books written on this issue, be published among people and studied. They should be studied in schools and in mosques, broadcast on the radio, and announced so that people are on clear knowledge and on guard against matters of apostasy, because now there are many trials. We ask Allah for safety.
There are many evils, and the enemies of Islam, from within and without, are many. Yes, so it is necessary to inform the Muslims. It is necessary to inform the Muslims. And now, the media bring in evils and cast doubt in the creed, and call to atheism, and call to the idea that people are all the same, regardless of the differences. I seek refuge in Allah.
Or that it is sufficient to be named a Muslim, because some say it is sufficient to be named a Muslim. So all the misguided and deviant sects are all the same as the people of the truth, as long as they are sufficient to be named Muslims and do whatever they wish of division, disagreement, and beliefs, as long as they claim affiliation to Islam. This is a call that is currently present. Yes.
So it is necessary that this issue be clarified, explained to people, and made clear to people. Also, it is necessary that it not be explained by those who think they know and the beginners in seeking knowledge. It is not to be explained except by the firm in knowledge. The firm in knowledge explain its intended meanings. Yes.
