The Ruling on Advocacy in Islam

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: What is the ruling on advocacy in Islam?
Advocacy in Islam, if a person seeks to establish the truth and refute falsehood, is good and commanded, because it removes injustice from the oppressed and assists the owner of the right in obtaining his right.
As for when a person advocates for falsehood, such that his speech is the one that prevails, this is forbidden. It depends on the intention of the advocate.
