Imaam Ibn Baaz (rahimahullaah) said:
That which is obligatory upon the society is to give the Scholars their due standing, and that a person works in order to direct them and advise them, and that he is eager to defend them and not to backbite them and to keep their honours safe. For there is not one of them who is infallible and errors and slips can arise. So when the error and slip occurs, it is obligatory upon the Scholars to inform each other (of such slips) with a good manner, and with good expression until the error ceases (to be) and the truth becomes apparent.
In the lecture Sharaf al-Ilm wa Aadaab Ahlihi as occurs on page 7 of the book, "They Turned Dammaaj Into a Torch of Fire After It Was a Torch of Light" (read here).
The maraakiz are many and the duroos are many, so there is abundance so fear Allaah and keep away from qeel and qaal (i.e. speaking about other maraakiz and students and scholars), speaking about the Shaykh of markaz and speaking about this and that. This is what destroyed Dammaaj. "Allaah does not change the condition of a people until they change what is with themselves" (13:11). The verse contains the precursor (muqaddimah) and the end-result (khaatimah). When they change what is with themselves, the situation will be made to change over them. When they change then the end-result will come to them. There is no doubt that Dammaaj has been changed, but this did not happen until they changed, this would not have happened. If they remained upright, upon respect of others, not having mockery, belittlement, abuse of others, the situation would not have changed upon them, but they changed. When you correct or refute a Sunni, do so with utmost adab, within the limits of the legislation. If they remained like this, the situation would not have changed upon them. But when they changed, the situation was made to change upon them. Do you want to experience the same thing as them? Preserve your time, wherever you may be in any markaz or any centre from the centres of the Sunnah. Show respect and manners.
