Is it permissible to boycott the people of the front?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible to boycott the people of the front?
The Shaykh : No, no, we do not say to boycott them. But I want to complete the answer to the previous question. You continue to work in calling people to the Book and the Sunnah, with gentleness and mildness, and in the best manner. And you do not oppose them; rather, you support them in the truth they are upon. I was asked many times by phone about the municipal elections that took place among you. So, as I tell you, my answer was: Do not be like them, and choose them if they are better than the others from the other parties. Is that clear?
