Rebuking the people of evil when they are pointed out
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: When I am stopped at the traffic lights, and I see a smoker, and one who is listening to singing, is it obligatory for me to forbid the evil of each one of these people?
Answer:
You are required to do what you are able to do, what you are able to do. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 49a, according to what you are able to do, while employing wisdom and not being harsh or severe in the rebuke. Let your words be impactful and acceptable, so that perhaps Allah will guide the one you advise and the one you remind. So use what you can. Yes.

Answer:
You are required to do what you are able to do, what you are able to do. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
He who amongst you sees something abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not strength enough to do it, then he should do it with his tongue, and if he has not strength enough to do it, (even) then he should (abhor it) from his heart
