Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some wrongs occur at wedding venues. Is it permissible for students of knowledge to visit them, preach to the people there, guide them, and explain things to them?
Answer:
It is recommended to take advantage of this opportunity. Preachers and scholars should visit these venues when people are gathered and give them advice and guidance. Because the gathering brings together a large number of ignorant people and students of knowledge, both men and women, it is required to seize this opportunity for guidance, reminding, and advice. Scholars—especially those who specifically call people to Allah—should attend these gatherings, warn the people, preach to them, and remind them. The same applies to other gatherings; if it is possible to do so, there is great good in it.
