Tracking the mistakes of preachers and compiling them on tapes
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks: Is it part of the correct methodology for one of the students of knowledge to track the mistakes of some preachers, compile them, and release them on tapes, dedicating a tape to each preacher in which he mentions his mistakes and slips?
Answer:
If the intention behind this is to clarify the truth and clarify the error, that is good. This is part of calling to Allah, that we clarify the mistakes so that people do not fall into them. But if the intention is to take pleasure in the person, to vent anger against him, and to belittle him, then this is not permissible. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
