    Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu. If I see something haram being shown on TV, like women or music, is it obligatory upon me to send an email to the TV channel telling them that it is haram and to stop this?

  • Extent of judging people based on their actions

    Assalaamu alaykum. To what extent can you judge another person? For example, if someone were to commit murder, we would be quick to condemn such a person.
