How to forbid evil with the heart?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the method of forbidding evil with the heart?
A: It is to dislike the evil and not to sit with its people; because sitting with them without forbidding it resembles the action of the Children of Israel, whom Allah cursed for it, in His saying, the Exalted:[Al-Ma'idah 5:78] They used not to forbid one another from doing the evil which they did. Evil was indeed what they used to do. [Al-Ma'idah: 78-79].
A: It is to dislike the evil and not to sit with its people; because sitting with them without forbidding it resembles the action of the Children of Israel, whom Allah cursed for it, in His saying, the Exalted:
Cursed were those who disbelieved among the Children of Israel by the tongue of David and of Jesus, the son of Mary. That was because they disobeyed and [habitually] transgressed.
لُعِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى لِسَانِ دَاوُدَ وَعِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ذَلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوْا وَكَانُوا يَعْتَدُونَ
