Advice to the residents of the neighborhood who are neglecting the congregational prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The Sahih al-Bari says: There is a family that has recently moved into our neighborhood, near the mosque. They have four elderly men who do not pray in the mosque. What do you advise regarding them in order to get them to pray? And if they persist in abandoning the prayer, do we report them or do we report them?
Answer:
The obligatory duty toward them consists of two things. The first is to advise them, preach to them, make it easy for them, and explain the ruling on the congregational prayer and the warning for those who neglect the congregational prayer. If they comply, that is fine; otherwise, the competent authorities, namely the men of the Hisbah, the Hisbah officers, and the Hisbah centers, should be informed so that they take the necessary action. Yes.
