STOPPING EVIL IS OBLIGATORY ON US ALL

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm As-sabt, 10th day of Muharram 1447AH, Saturday, 5th July 2025.

*_STOPPING EVIL IS OBLIGATORY ON US ALL_*. BismilLah. 

ALLAH Azzawajal says; “You (true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and his Sunnah) are the best of peoples ever raised for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma‘roof (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained) and forbid Al‑Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden)”[Aal ‘Imraan 3:110].

ALLAH Azzawajal says again

“Let there arise out of you a group of people inviting to all that is good (Islam), enjoining Al-Ma‘roof (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do) and forbidding Al-Munkar (polytheism and disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden). And it is they who are the successful” [Aal ‘Imraan 3:104].

“Those among the Children of Israel who disbelieved were cursed by the tongue of Dawood (David) and ‘Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary). That was because they disobeyed (ALLAH and the Messengers) and were ever transgressing beyond bounds. They used not to forbid one another from Al-Munkar (wrong, evildoing, sins, polytheism, disbelief) which they committed. Vile indeed was what they used to do”

[al-Maa’idah 5:78, 79]. 

There is consensus that forbidding evil is obligatory for the one who is able to do it, and is safe from harm to himself or the Muslims. But if he fears (harm) then he may denounce it in his heart and shun the doer of evil and not mix with him. See: Tafseer al-Qurtubi (6/253). 

*_May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen.
