Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you the best, if a person initiates a bad practice and then repents from it, does he still bear the sin of whoever acts upon it after that?

Answer:
He announces to the people, he announces that he has repented from this matter, and he does not remain silent. Yes.
