Question:
He says: If a person is harming his neighbors, should he be boycotted to avoid his evil?
Answer:
He should be advised. If he is harming his neighbors, he should be counseled and warned of Allah the Mighty and Majestic, so that perhaps he may repent and perhaps he may remember. Or, some people do not realize; some people harm their neighbors without knowing it, so they should be alerted to that, and it is not sufficient for him to merely receive reward.
