Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If I see an idol being sold in one of the shops, is it obligatory for me to break it and remove it?
Answer:
You do not take possession of it, but you report it to the men of al-hisbah (market inspectors) if there is a hisbah in the town; you report this matter to them, or you inform the one in authority if possible. Yes.
