Following the people who are adhering to the sunnah

Question

It goes without saying the recent indifference that has occurred in the tableeghi jammat with the one side having certainty on an ameer and his claims and Allah Ta'ala knows what more he says, and the shura side who Alhamdulillah is trying to take the work forward and leave the baatil. Would Hadhrat Mufti Saheb still advise going in jamaat with the shura side?

Answer

May Allah Ta`ala show us all the right path and guard us against evil and wrong. The duty of every Muslim is to look carefully and examine the sunnat and the path that is closest to the sunnat and the people who are adhering to the sunnat. Work with them with respect and kindness. Generally these colours are observed in the people of the shura.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
