Is it prescribed to boycott those who belong to the Shadhiliyyah order who were advised but did not accept the advice?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner says, may Allah bless you: I have relatives who belong to the Shadhiliyyah Sufi order.
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : I have relatives who belong to the Shadhiliyyah Sufi order. I have fulfilled the duty of advising them, but they did not accept the advice. We want from you, may Allah bless you and your knowledge, a word that may be accepted by them, so that I have established the proof against them?
And do you see boycotting them if they turn away from the advice as cutting off family ties, knowing that they are my relatives? May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : Do you know anything about this order?
The questioner : I do not know.
The Shaykh : Fine, how do you deny what you do not know? Answer, I mean, answer, say: So I withdraw. Has anyone of you denied it who knows the Shadhiliyyah order? I do not know it.
The questioner : They have innovative ideas.
The Shaykh : Be patient, be patient, how?
The questioner : They have innovative ideas, meaning they gather in places, for example, at night after the 'Isha' prayer, and they sit and say things that are not known.
The Shaykh : But what is wrong with them?
The questioner : For example, their saying, meaning: "Huwa Huwa" (He is He) in collective dhikr.
The Shaykh : Meaning they draw near to Allah with this?
The questioner : Yes, they draw near to Allah with this.
The Shaykh : In any case, there is no doubt that it is a blameworthy religious innovation, there is no doubt that it is a blameworthy religious innovation, because "Huwa Huwa," what is it? The pronoun has no antecedent and no referent, and I am also afraid that they say "Huwa Huwa" meaning the entire creation, so they may have intended unity or union, we do not know.
The questioner : O Shaykh, they see the verse that this is the name of Allah so they take this verse for the Greatest Name of Allah.
The Shaykh : And why do they not take from?
In any case, their saying is blameworthy, and perhaps they hide behind this saying, and the pronouns in themselves have no meaning; they are letters that have no meaning in themselves except according to the referent, so in any case, deny this order, and if you see benefit in boycotting them, boycott them, and if you do not see benefit, do not boycott them, yes.

It is He, Allah, there is no god but He
هُوَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَThe Shaykh : And why do they not take from
Allah has testified that there is no god but He
