Is it permissible to spy on people who intend to harm the Ummah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible to spy on people who intend to harm the scholars of the Ummah or the callers of the Ummah, in order to ward off this harm from them? Is it permissible to spy?
The Shaykh : I believe this question contradicts itself. How does the one who wants to spy know that there are people who intend to harm the Ummah? Except through spying.
