Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner also asks: Is it wise to remain silent about some wrongdoings and sensitive issues, and to devote oneself to teaching people the truth, leaving the rest of the matter to the one in authority?
Answer:
Teaching people the truth includes what you mentioned. Teaching people the truth means that you guide them with correct and sound guidance. This is the meaning of what you asked about. And just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would occasionally admonish his Companions, meaning he did not do so every day or every time, but rather from time to time. He did not burden them so that they would become bored, nor did he leave them alone so that they would neglect it, but rather at intervals. Yes.
