Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man was asked by another man from the Tabligh group to go out with him, but he refused. The man from this group said, "If you do not go out, Allah will not accept you." He said, "Even if I pray, fast, and give charity while I am with my family, Allah will not accept me." The man from the group said, "Yes, Allah will not accept you unless you go out with this group." There is also another statement where a man went out with this group for a year, and when he returned, he said, "By the Great Allah, the one who does not go out and then dies will not smell the scent of Paradise." What is the ruling on this speech in these two matters?
Answer:
This is empty talk, and it indicates their ignorance. This indicates the ignorance of this group. It is false speech, and one should not pay attention to it. The scholars have warned against this group. They have warned against this group and written books, especially those who went out with them and saw their actions and saw them directly. They have warned against them. Is there not a clear case for leaving this group, not paying attention to it, and not going out with them? Yes.
