The ruling on classifying people as committed and uncommitted
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: What is the ruling on classifying people into a committed person and an uncommitted person?
Answer:
A person is not in a position to classify people. He should first take care of himself, and if he sees that someone is falling short, he should advise them, teach them, and remind them of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). He should call people to Allah with insight, thereby benefiting himself and benefiting others. As for someone whose only concern is classifying people into categories, and whose tongue is always dividing them up, that is not sound behavior. What does this division produce? It produces nothing.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
