Denying evil while committing it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Should I deny the evil even if I am the one committing this evil, or should I leave off this act so that I do not fall under the warning?
Answer:
Do not combine two sins: you commit the evil and do not deny it. These are two sins. Deny the evil and leave off the evil yourself. It is obligatory for you to leave off the evil, but you do not leave off the obligation of denying it while you are able to do so. Thus, you combine two sins. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
