Some Jamaat brothers want to discuss the chicken issue and similar other controversial issues during the daily Fikr sessions.

Question

Some Jamaat brothers want to discuss the chicken issue and similar other controversial issues during the daily Fikr sessions. Others object. What do you advise?

Answer

If by the 'daily fikr' you are referring to the Tabligh Jamaa't gathering where they discuss their Tabligh activities, then it will be improper to discuss the chicken issue, or any other controversial issue even of a Deeni nature at such sessions. All types of people participate in Tablighi Jamaat activities. By introducing this dimension in these sessions, the culprits involved in the haraam activities will not join the Jamaat. It is the duty of the Imaam of the Musjid and of the Ulama in general to speak on such issues from the mimbar, in their bayaans and publications.
