Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the journey to prayer utilized for enjoining good and forbidding evil, such as urging people to pray, for example?
Answer:
Well, if he leaves the prayer and sees people sitting, or people working, and he enjoins them to pray, that is good. He enjoins good, advises, admonishes, reminds them, and then goes on his way. That is fine. But if he passes by them and leaves them, that is not permissible, because that is abandoning what is wrong. Yes.
