When to Speak Against the Ahlul Bid'ah

He (The questioner) says: Honorable Sheikh, may Allah grant you success, there might be many people who speak against some of the people of Bid'ah (innovation within religion) and the kharijites of this time and point out their mistakes. Is this considered as backbiting them? The Sheikh Answers: If they make evil and fitnah (tribulations), it is a must that they are exposed and their disgrace is revealed, so that people can be careful of them. If they transgress and commit evil against people, then their faults must be exposed in order for people to be warned. However, if they do no evil, it is only something in their hearts, they believe it in their hearts, and no evil was committed by them, then they are left alone without exposing them. And the scholars say that whosoever believes in the Madhhab (way) of the Kharijites and doesn’t commit anything, then he is to be left alone. But if he commits something, then he must be held back. He must be fought. He must be stopped. Yes
