Is it permissible to debate the Rafidah on satellite channels?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What about the debates and arguments with the Rafidah that take place on some satellite channels? Is this appropriate and suitable, or does it cause confusion among the common people?

Answer:
No, there is benefit in this if the one debating them is from the people of knowledge. If the one who debates them is from the people of knowledge, there is benefit in that so as to expose their affair to the people. But if they debate with them in a hidden place where the people do not know, they will remain as they are. However, if they are exposed before the people, the condition is that it be from the scholars, not from those who have enthusiasm and zeal but no knowledge, because that is Satan who may delude him and bring up doubts. If he is a scholar, doubts do not spread to him. But if he is not well-versed, the one who holds the falsehood may triumph over him before the people. The situation is undoubtedly a difficult one.
It is obligatory that only the people of knowledge who are firmly grounded in knowledge should step forward to discuss them publicly. Yes.
