Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the Muslim's position when trials occur? And is there a report that he must stay in his home when they multiply?
Answer:
One should ask Allah for safety from trials. If going out brings a religious benefit, such as advising people and clarifying matters to them, that is good. However, if going out does not result in any benefit, or if he is ignorant and so on, then it is best for him to isolate himself from them and stay away from them. Yes.
