No. 889/KH
Date: 10 Shawwal 1403H (21 July 1983)
Bismillahirrahmanirrahim
From Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah bin Baz, to Respected Brother Dr. Muhammad Taqiyyudin Al-Hilaly, may Allah give taufeeq for all goodness. Aamin.
Assalamu'alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.
Your letter dated 12 Sha'ban 1403H (25 May 1983) has arrived, may Allah convey what you hinted about taking our opinion to stop the wages of Brother Ahmad Al-Muhany because he was in khuruuj with the tablighi jamaat.
I now convey to you that my opinion is to continue giving him the regular salary which we dispatch through you. The reason being that going out in khuruuj with them certainly does not include as a reprehensible journey. They do jaulah (around) cities and villages, establish relationship with leaders of the Muslims and members of the public, attending their ijtema in Bangladesh, etc., which is attended by leaders and members of the public, is indeed within the context of dakwah ilallah. This information is in accordance with what is reported by the masyaikhs that we had sent to attend their ijtema in Bangladesh last year. You liken your reason in condemning their khuruuj to what is mentioned by Hafidh Ibn Kathir rahimahullah, about the people who merely in intense worship who walk on the surface of the earth, in solitude on the mountain tops, caves, and forests, is contrary to facts and their practices.
I ask Allah to grant us taufeeq to do what pleases Him. For He is Most Gracious and Most Noble.
Wassalamu'alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
