Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. I have a story from a friend, but I noticed it is an inappropriate story among the printed stories. Should I return it to him or burn it?
Answer:
If it contains false or lying words, then you inform him of that, and you tell him that this speech is not permissible to circulate and not permissible to publish, and you convince him to destroy this story. Because if you destroy it without his knowledge and without taking his opinion, there might be a misunderstanding between you and him. So you must clarify the matter to him and convince him to destroy it. Yes.
