Advising the one who lags behind the congregation and referring his case to the Committee
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a person advises the imam of the mosque regarding a man who is absent from the congregational prayer, and the man does not heed the advice, and then the matter is referred to the center of the Commission, is his conscience cleared by doing so?
Answer:
This is the limit of what he can do: if he first advises him and he does not stop, he refers his case to the center of the Commission. If he does not repent, and you have done what is required of you, that is sufficient. However, do not cease advising him; advise him and enjoin good and forbid evil, and admonish him with Allah the Exalted. Yes.
