According to Abu Saʿid al-Khudri (ra), the Prophet (saw) said, “He who observes an evil deed should change it with his hand if he can do so; if he cannot do so, (he should change it) then with his tongue; if he still cannot do so then (he should change it) with his heart, and that is the weakest form of faith” (Abu Da’ud, al-Salat, 239-242)
According to Ibn ʿAbbas, the Messenger of Allah (saw) (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “He is not one of us who does not have mercy upon our young, respect our elders, and enjoin good and forbid evil.” (al-Tirmidhi, al-Birr, 15)
Saʿid b. Abi Burda b. Abi Musa al-Ashʿari said that his father said that his grandfather (ra) said that the Prophet (saw) said, “On every Muslim there is enjoined (compulsory) ṣadaqa (alms). They (the people) said, “If one has nothing?” He said, “He should work with his hands so that he may benefit himself and give in charity.” They said, “If he cannot work or does not work?” He said, “Then he should help the oppressed unhappy person (by word or action or both).” They said, “If he does not do it?” He said, “Then he should enjoin what is good (or what is acceptable).” They said, “If he does not do that.” He said, “Then he should refrain from doing evil, for that will be considered for Him as a ṣadaqa (charity).’” (al-Bukhari, al-Adab, 33)
According to Hudhayfa b. al-Yaman (ra), the Prophet (saw) said, “By the One in Whose hand is my soul! Either you command good and forbid evil, or Allah will soon send upon you a punishment from Him, then you will call upon Him, but He will not respond to you.” (al-Tirmidhi, al-Fitan, 9)
As ʿUbayd Allah b. Jarir (ra) said that his father said that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “If a community does not curtail evil deeds when they are able to do so, then Allah will send a plague upon them all.” (Ibn Hanbal, IV, 366)
