Question

Will it be gheebat to warn people of a scoundrel who cons people with his amaliyaat tricks? He poses as a qualified aamil, tricks people with his fraudulent stunts, making them believe that sihr (magic) was perpetrated on them by members of the family, thereby causing serious family rifts and mutual hatred.

Answer

In fact, it is meritorious to warn people against the scoundrel described by you. If your intention is sincere, then it will be a good deed to warn others of dangers, deceits, scoundrels, and the like of these evil quack 'sangomas' who capitalize on the ignorance of people.
