Question:
How do we combine his statement in the hadith:Sunan Ibn Majah 2540Hasan (Darussalam) with prioritizing benefits in the matter of enjoining good and forbidding evil?
Answer:
This is for the one in authority; the one in authority organizes affairs so that chaos and fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) do not occur.
Q: I mean the ordinary enjoiner, the ordinary individual?
A: He speaks according to his capacity with good words: [Surat al-Nahl: 125], he should be with good words and good deeds. This is forbidding evil with the tongue. If he sees someone swearing by other than Allah, he says: "Fear Allah." This is not permissible. If he sees someone cursing and abusing, he says: "It is not permissible." If he sees someone looking at women and causing problems that are feared, he forbids it to him. If he sees someone lagging behind in the congregational prayer, he advises him, and so on.
How do we combine his statement in the hadith:
and do not let the fear of blame stop you from carrying out the command of Allah (SWT)
