Question

Could you please tell me how many time in Quran Allah (subhanahu wataa'la) commandet for ' amar bil maa'roof wanahaya anilmunkar'

Answer

The words amar bil maroof and nahiy anil munkar appears eight times in the Quran. (Al-Mu?jamul Mufahras, Page 582)

Besides these Aayaat, the meaning, hokum (order), encouragement, etc appears more than sixty times in the Quran. (Fazaail-e-Amaal, Virtues of Tabligh, Page 5)

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
