23. Chapter: On Commanding The Right And Forbidding The Wrong Allah Almighty says, "Let there be a community among you who call to the good, and enjoin the right, and forbid the wrong. They are the ones who have success." (3:104) The Almighty says, "You are the best nation ever to be produced before mankind. You enjoin the is right, forbid the wrong." (3:110). The Almighty says, "Make allowances for people, command what is right, and turn away from the ignorant," (7:199) and the Almighty says, "The believers, men and women, are friends of one another. They command what is right and forbid what is wrong." (9:71) The Almighty says, "Those among the Tribe of Israel who rejected were cursed on the tongue of Dawud and that of 'Isa, son of Maryam. That is because they rebelled and overstepped the limits. They would not restrain one another from any of the wrong things that they did. How evil were the things they used to do!" (5:78-79) and the Almighty says, "Say: 'It is the truth from your Lord; so let whoever wishes believe and whoever wishes reject.'" (18:29) The Almighty says, "Proclaim what you have been ordered to," (15:94) and the Almighty says, "We rescued those who forbidden the evil and seized those who did wrong with a harsh punishment because they were deviators." (7:165) 184. Abu Sa'id al-Khudri said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah, (PBUH), say, 'Whoever of you sees something wrong should change it with his hand; if he cannot, then with his tongue; if he cannot, then with his heart, and that is the weakest form of belief.'"
