Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. One of the writers says: If you see a man who frequently goes to the mosque at all times, then one should fear that he is becoming extreme.
The Shaykh:
Extreme.
The questioner:
Yes. He asks: What is the commentary on what this writer mentioned, may Allah grant you success?
The Shaykh:
This is a misguided writer. This is bad writing that discourages people from prayer. This is a despicable writing, and it is obligatory to refute him.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. And I say: Is frequenting the mosque considered extremism, but is being late to the mosque also considered laxity?
The Shaykh:
Both are the same: laxity and extremism. Yes.
