Is it permissible to leave off acting on some secondary issues for the sake of da'wah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible to leave off some secondary issues for the sake of da'wah?

The Shaykh : This is the problem of the present age, the issue of da'wah.

The questioner : No, no, because I am sitting in an environment that is fanatical about the Hanafis, so I cannot call people if some secondary issues that contradict the Hanafis in those matters appear. So if I leave these things, I can

The Shaykh : Fine, I understood you, but it remains for you to understand me.

The questioner : This is what is required.

The Shaykh : To what did you call the Hanafis among the matters in which it is not permissible to be lenient?

The questioner : I start with them with tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and also

The Shaykh : Do they accept your tawhid?

The questioner : And the usul (principles) as well, there is disagreement in them?

The Shaykh : Leave the usul for now, let us stick to tawhid. Do they accept your tawhid?

The questioner : If I leave the matters in which there is disagreement in the branches, perhaps they will accept it from me!

The Shaykh : And is it permissible to leave something related to the principle of principles, which is tawhid?

The questioner : I do not mean the usul, I mean the branches in some matters.

The Shaykh : You do not mean that, I am asking you: Did you call them to tawhid?

The questioner : Yes, we called them to tawhid.

The Shaykh : Good, and everything that is obligatory for tawhid, for example that Allah has the attribute of elevation? Or is this among the postponed matters?

The questioner : They affirm the attribute of elevation.

The Shaykh : No, the Hanafis? The Hanafis are Maturidi, and the Maturidi do not affirm the attribute of elevation; they are like the Asha'irah.

The questioner : Some of them say it in every place, and some do not.

The Shaykh : As a madhhab, when we speak, we do not speak about some individuals, so that we know that the one before us is originally a Hanafi. Haha. The important thing is that as a madhhab, the Maturidi and the Asha'irah do not affirm the attribute of elevation, so it is not permissible to be lenient with them in this, and they must be called to it. Where have we finished? Good, may you be well.

The questioner : We ask Allah for pardon and well-being, we ask Allah to forgive us and you,

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good, and pray for us in your absence, and peace be upon you. We are finished, oh.
And Glory be to You, O Allah, and with Your praise we testify that there is no god but You. I seek Your forgiveness and I repent to You.
