Question:
Sa'id Muhammad says: Is it permissible to leave off forbidding some people from some disliked matters in order to reconcile with them?
Answer:
Prohibition is not left off.Sahih Muslim 49a So prohibition is not left off, even if it is only with the heart. And prohibition is for the one who is able to do it according to what he can: with his hand if he has authority, with his tongue if he does not have authority but has the ability to explain and knowledge of the rulings, and with his heart if he cannot prohibit with his hand or his tongue; he prohibits the evil with his heart and stays away from it and its people. Yes.

Answer:
Prohibition is not left off.
He who amongst you sees something abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not strength enough to do it, then he should do it with his tongue, and if he has not strength enough to do it, (even) then he should (abhor it) from his heart
