Guidelines for Defending the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the Ruling on Demonstrations
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Many questions have been received, among them this one. The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do we ensure that defending the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is regulated by the guidelines of the Shari'ah? And are demonstrations a legitimate means? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
Responding to the enemies of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) must be based on what came in the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). We do not invent guidelines of our own or terms of our own, nor do we innovate something that did not exist before, such as demonstrations, chanting slogans, and the like.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
