Gathering and Demonstrations to Demand Rights
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I love you for the sake of Allah. My question is: What is the ruling on gathering and assembling in front of one of the government offices to demand appointment to a position or something else? What is the ruling on doing such things to demand one's right?
Answer:
Demonstrations are not permissible in any form, whether in front of offices, in front of schools, or in any field, because this opens the door to chaos and trains people in demonstrating, which then develops into something more severe. Therefore, these bad phenomena in society must be abandoned. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
