Imām Al-Barbahārī (rahimahullāh) stated: “Enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil is an obligation except when you fear a person’s sword or staff.” Explanation of Shaikh Sālih Al-Fawzān: Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri narrated that Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand. If he is unable, then with his speech. If he is unable, then with his heart.” (Muslim, 49) This is likewise stated in the Qur’an where Allah (the Most High) said: كُنتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ تَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ ۗ – 3:110 “You [the true followers of the Prophet] are the best of people ever raised up for mankind. You enjoin what is good and forbid all that is evil, and you believe in Allah.” And Allah said: وَلْتَكُن مِّنكُمْ أُمَّةٌ يَدْعُونَ إِلَى الْخَيْرِ وَيَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ ۚ وَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ – 3:104 “Let there arise out of you a group of people inviting to good (i.e. Islam), enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil – it is they who are successful.” Allah also stated: وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتُ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ يَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ وَيُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَيُطِيعُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ سَيَرْحَمُهُمُ اللَّهُ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ – 9:71 “The believing men and believing women are allies of one another. They enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong. They establish the Prayer, pay the Zakāh and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah will have mercy on them. Indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise.” The hypocrites, male or female, are the opposite to this. They enjoin what is evil and they forbid what is good. We ask Allah for well-being and protection. Allah (the Most High) said: الْمُنَافِقُونَ وَالْمُنَافِقَاتُ بَعْضُهُم مِّن بَعْضٍ ۚ يَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمُنكَرِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَقْبِضُونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ ۚ نَسُوا اللَّهَ فَنَسِيَهُمْ ۗ إِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ هُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ – 9:67 “The hypocrite men and hypocrite women are of one another. They enjoin what is wrong and forbid what is right and they close their hands. They have forgotten Allah, so He has forgotten them [accordingly]. Indeed, the hypocrites – it is they who are the defiantly disobedient.” (Source: www.abukhadeejah.com) Follow Us On Twitter: @salafirecording SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL AND SHARE THE VIDEOS SO THAT OTHERS MAY BENEFIT.
