The State of Da'wah and the Da'wah Workers in the Lands, and What Happened to Some of Them

Question:
This one says, in brief, in his question: Your Eminence, the father, the awakening has stagnated in these lands, and the youth of the awakening are in confusion about their affair, after the events that occurred recently, until he said: And we know that you will not hide the truth of the matter from us, so we ask for clarification of what is correct. Is da'wah being combated, or are there errors in the da'wah? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
Da'wah is not being combated; rather, the callers to Allah are still, in every part of this state, and praise be to Allah, calling to Allah and spreading the truth and teaching people good, at the expense of the state and at the expense of the benefactors. Rather, some of the brothers did things that the state criticized and saw fit to stop them for their reasons, because, as I mentioned, they did not adhere to what was said to them and they said what we said, so this is why they were stopped. Their direction now, if Allah wills, is to remove the situation, and for them to return to their good deeds, and not to expose themselves to anything that would cause any of them to be stopped. We ask Allah to grant them all success. The human being is a place for error; every son of Adam errs, and the best of those who err are the repentant. So a person may say a word or do things that the state sees as inappropriate, and that it is obligatory for him to leave them; because they may drag him into evil. So it is obligatory for every caller to Allah to seek good, and to stay away from the causes of evil, and to be careful in what he says, and to strive to make his da'wah a unifying one, not a dividing one, and a cause for guidance, not for discord and fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). The believer seeks good, and is not infallible. Everyone errs; every son of Adam errs. The matter, if Allah wills, is near and will end soon, if Allah wills. By the power of Allah, they will be released from detention, and the matters will end, and the matters will return to their normal course, if Allah wills. And thereby, if Allah wills, what is required will be achieved in the activity of da'wah, and better than it was previously. So we ask Allah to grant success to everyone, and to grant success to the state for all good, and to rectify for it the inner circle, and to grant success to our brothers the callers in everything that pleases Him, and to help them on the path that pleases Him and that He loves, Exalted is He, and that Allah benefits the servants with it.
