ibn Fawzān al-Fawzān: Public Protests and
Demonstrations are Newly Invented Trials and Tribulations:
Al-ʿAllāmah
Ṣāliḥ
ibn Fawzān al-Fawzān -ḥāfiẓahullāh-
said, “Our Religion is not a Religion of
chaos, our Religion is a Religion of discipline, a Religion of
organization and a Religion of tranquility.
And public protests and demonstrations are not from the
practices of the Muslims. And the Muslims did not used to be familiar with such
activities. And the Religion of Islām is a Religion of peace and a Religion of
mercy. There is no chaos in it, nor any confusion, nor incitement of fitan
(trials, tribulations). This is the Religion of Islām and it grants the people
their rights without the utilization of this method, by means of the Sharīʿah. These public protests and demonstrations are newly invented fitan and they
have introduced the spilling of blood and the destruction of wealth. So these
affairs are not permissible.”
