The Impact of Being Lax in Teaching People the Correct Creed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This is Salim, and he says: Is there any harm in being lax in teaching people the correct creed?

The Shaykh:
Is it?

The questioner:
There is harm in being lax in teaching people the correct creed.

The Shaykh:
Being lax is not permissible. You should not be lax when you have knowledge and you see people upon falsehood and upon a bad creed. It is not permissible for you to withhold the knowledge from them. Convey it to them, teach them, and guide them. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
