Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on one who writes about the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) that occurred among the Companions, on the grounds that the references people now turn to are full of lies about the noble Companions, and he wants to correct the information?
Answer:
We have not seen his compilation, nor have we read it, so we cannot rule on it. However, the principle held by the people of the Sunnah and the community is to refrain from and remain silent about what occurred among the Companions, and not to get involved in their affairs.
