The Position Toward Disbelievers When They Commit Sins in the Lands of Muslims

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: If I see a group of disbelievers committing one of the sins, what is the correct position toward them?

The Shaykh:
What did you see?

The questioner:
He saw a group of disbelievers committing sins.

The Shaykh:
The disbelievers did not enter our land except under a covenant, and part of that covenant is that they do not display what is wrong or disbelief, and they do not announce their religion or their prayers. This is taken from them. You must report them to the authority closest to you so that the covenant and the regulations are enforced upon them, and you must not remain silent about this.
