The duty of scholars when innovations emerge

When innovations emerge it will be obligatory for the scholars to make their knowledge public, otherwise, Allah will condemn them.

Hawzah News Agency - Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Jumhur al-‘Ammi in a marfu‘ manner (rafa ’ahu), from the Messenger of Allah who has said the following.

إِذَا ظَهَرَتِ الْبِدَعُ فِي أُمَّتِي فَلْيُظْهِرِ الْعَالِمُ عِلْمَهُ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ الله.

“When innovations emerge it will be obligatory for the scholars to make their knowledge public, otherwise, Allah will condemn them.”

Al-Kāfi, v.1, Book 2, Chapter 18
