Media programs that combat the rulings of the Shari'ah and the obligation to forbid evil

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
There are programs broadcast in the morning when men are at work, which aim to combat the rulings of the Shari'ah, such as plural marriage. There is a series in which it is stated that a man who married two women has gone mad. Why is this tragedy not reported to the higher universities? And why is nothing broadcast that aims to introduce the Muslim community to the correct methods of Islamic upbringing?

Answer:
Whoever finds this should write to us to identify this series, its title, on which night, and at what time he heard this, so that we can inquire about it and request the tape containing this matter, so that we may be fully informed. The brothers who hear these things should, when they hear any of this, record the time, the hour, the title of the tape, and the title of the series, and submit what they write regarding it to the head of the committees, or to other scholars, or to the Minister of the Interior, or to the King. The point is that he should do whatever he can to forbid what is wrong.
