Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. What is the ruling on following the debates that take place between Muslims and the other religions, or the debates between the people of the Sunnah and the community and the Shi'ah or others?
Answer:
For a person who is well-versed and knows the truth from falsehood, there is no harm in looking into these debates in order to correct the errors in them. However, it is not permissible for an ignorant person to look into them or listen to them, because they may affect him, and he may be deceived by them due to his ignorance. Yes.
