Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says to me: My brother has been wronged, so he is an oppressed person. Is it permissible for me to bear false testimony to avert the harm from him?
Answer:
No, you avert it, meaning impurity is not washed away with impurity. This is not permissible.
