Question:
What is the Muslim's position regarding public evils? And what is the Shari'ah-compliant method for forbidding them?
Answer:
As the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) explained: "Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand." This is for those who have authority, such as the one in authority or those in his position, like the men of the Hisbah (public order). They change it with their hand. If he cannot, meaning he has no authority, then with his tongue, through admonition, reminding, forbidding, and clarification. If he cannot, meaning he has no ability to clarify, then with his heart, and that is the weakest of faith.
