The Ruling on the Imam Warning Against the Tabligh Group
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Your Excellency the Shaykh, may Allah keep you safe, there was a dispute, especially after some preachers spoke from the pulpit based on the general announcement of the past weeks regarding warning against the Tabligh Group. Is it obligatory for the preacher to do so?
The Shaykh:
Yes, it is obligatory for him to warn, but as we mentioned, in a wise manner that deters from discord, warning against imported ideas. The country does not need this; the country is upright, and praise be to Allah, and upon a sound methodology. We are upon tawhid (the oneness of Allah), upon creed, and upon the Sunnah, so we do not accept anyone coming to us from here and there. Whoever wants to enter with us and cooperate with us, may Allah give him life, and whoever wants to divert us from what we are upon, may he not have life nor well-being.
The questioner:
Some people cite the praise of some scholars for this group.
The Shaykh:
Who are the ones who praise it? The ones who praised it later retracted, and the ones who participated with them, most of them retracted and now they respond against it. And the truth is followed, my brother, even if someone erred and praised them out of ignorance of them. We have become clear about the truth, and praise be to Allah, we take hold of the truth. Yes.
