Question:
This is Sami. He says: When certain wrongdoings spread in society and among people, what is the obligation of the preacher and the caller to Allah regarding these wrongdoings?
Answer:
It is obligatory for him to point out these matters that he criticizes them for, which contradict the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger. He has no choice but to remain silent and leave them alone; rather, he must warn them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 4788Sahih (Al-Albani), Sunan Abi Dawud 4788Sahih (Al-Albani). He does not assist them or name them, but he guides them and guides others.
