Question:
He says: How does one refute a bid'ah (religious innovation) or a munkar (what is wrong) when one hears it here in the Haram from someone who is circumambulating and calling out, “O Ali, O close friend of Allah”?
Answer:
You must advise this person, telling him, “This is not permissible; this is shirk (associating partners with Allah), and this invalidates all your deeds.” If he accepts it, fine; otherwise, you have fulfilled what is required of you. Yes.
