Question:
I and a group of young men mock some of the Sufi orders in their methods of dhikr, their poems, and their customs during the mawlid celebrations. Is this action prescribed? And is it considered mocking the religion?
Answer:
No, it is not mocking the religion. It is mocking bid'ah (religious innovations), and bid'ah is not part of the religion. However, there is no benefit in mere mockery. It is obligatory for you to call them to Allah and explain to them that this is an error and that it is misguidance, and that it is not permissible. As for mere mockery, it does not achieve the intended purpose.
