What is your opinion of some of the da'is who remained silent about the killing of Jamil al-Rahman and did not clarify his virtue and his methodology, while on the other hand, the image of Hassan al-Turabi and Majaddi was being polished?

The questioner : May Allah reward you. Regarding the point we want to make, these da'is did not express disapproval, for example, with an independent recording of what happened in Afghanistan, and they did not even defendThe Shaykh : or his methodology or his creed. Meanwhile, we find, for example, that there are people who, if the expression is correct, have had their personalities polished, such as Majaddi and others, the imams of misguidance. They lead the common Muslim people to believe that this person is on the right path. It would have been better for them to show people that this man, for example, is on a sound belief and that the other is on a belief of misguidance, and other such matters. It was also within their capacity to speak and clarify about Hassan al-Turabi and Majaddi and others. It was possible for them to show, even if it was only a little, about Jamil al-Rahman (may Allah have mercy on him) (Glorified and Exalted is He).
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : And without doubt, in my personal and humble opinion, this is one of the secrets of the activism (harakiyyah) that we have been afflicted with. This ailment, without doubt, has been imposed on us Muslims because we listen, but no answer or question is heard from us. May Allah reward you. Regarding this, we return to knowledge and the seeking of knowledge.
The Shaykh : But before that.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : I do not think you are with me in the view that when such a question is presented, the answer will naturally be from the one who did this, so he would not be correct. But you are singing about a group that I do not know.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : So if you, for example, presented to me: look at what they said about this issue and what they said about another issue, because as it is said, "By its opposite, things become clear." But when you say they spoke about such and such with enthusiasm and heat, and so on, but regarding the killing of Jamil al-Rahman, none of these people spoke, and I do not know them. Therefore, it is not proper to answer this general question without detail and clarification.
