Do you advise going out with the group of Da'wah and Tabligh?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
His EminenceThe Shaykh : Many people come to the group of Da'wah and Tabligh. Do you advise the general public to go with them? And if there is an error, would you please clarify it for the people?
The Shaykh : There is no doubt that people have differed regarding the group of Da'wah and Tabligh, and much has been said about them. I have not seen anything from any of them that would allow me to warn against them. However, whoever is able to stay in his country to seek knowledge is undoubtedly better off than going with them, because seeking knowledge is better than worship.
What I criticize them for is that they have little knowledge, meaning that they do not strive much to seek knowledge. However, they have a fervent religious emotion, and they have a love for good and self-sacrifice, among other things. How many people have been guided by their hands! So there is blessing in their efforts. But if a believing person sees something from them that is to be warned against, he should advise them. If they comply, that is what is required. If they do not comply, he should leave them alone.
Yes, from the right.
The questioner : In the name of Allah.
The Shaykh : This is what was mentioned by name. Whoever was not mentioned by name does not deserve an answer, although our questions now, as you see, are oral.
