Subhaana Allaah...DA SUFI..ALLAAHU AKBAR!!!!! It is a Shar`i ruling that if any permissible act incorporates any mafaasid (harms/evils), then this act becomes impermissible. [Imdaadul Fataawa, page74] Even in matters which are Mustahab, if there is the possibility that the masses will elevate a Mustahab act, emphasis on it greatly and render it as being Waajib, then that Mustahab act also becomes Makrooh. [Ifaadhaatul Yawmia, page 80, vol. 10] The Proof For The Above Ruling Understand this ruling, which is both, aqli (rational) and naqli (narrative), and the Hanafi Fuqahaa have extracted numerous corollaries from this ruling. The ruling is that if there exists any Mubaah or mandoob act, which in the Shariah has not attained the level of necessity and there is a possibility that it creates fasaad amongst the masses (when it is rigidly adhered to or elevated in importance), then this Mubaah or mandoob must necessarily be prohibited from and abandoned. The aqli (logical) argument for this is clear and the naqli argument is in the Aayat, “And do not insult those whom they (the kuffaar) worship besides Allaah, lest they insult Allaah wrongfully without knowledge...” It is clear that to censure the baatil ‘gods’ is a necessary permissible act, and in some cases it is mandoob also, but because it is not an objective in itself, in fact this objective (of ‘teaching’ the nonbelievers) can be attained in other ways, like through wisdom and counsel, and there is a possibility that this method (of censuring) will lead to them hurling abuse at Allaah Ta`ala, hence it has been forbidden.
