Majmu' al-Fatawa - Ibn Taimiya - (31/20)

For it is not permissible for a person guilty of sinful misconduct to reside in religious institutions such as lodges, schools and the like, whether his misconduct consists in wronging people and transgressing against them in word and deed, or in violating Allah’s rights in matters between himself and Allah. Both types of offender must be reproved and punished. How, then, can such a person be granted a place in religious institutions and the like? How much more so when the founder has stipulated this, making the obligation all the more emphatic!

Anyone entitled to residence who has been lawfully admitted may not be removed for this unjust purpose or for any other. How, then, can a just person be replaced by a wrongdoer, or a righteous person by a wicked one? Whoever assists in this has assisted in sin and transgression, whether or not he knows the founder’s stipulation.

فَإِنَّ الْجِهَاتِ الدِّينِيَّةَ مِثْلَ الخوانك وَالْمَدَارِسِ وَغَيْرِهَا لَا يَجُوزُ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ فِيهَا فَاسِقٌ سَوَاءٌ كَانَ فِسْقُهُ بِظُلْمِهِ لِلْخَلْقِ وَتَعَدِّيه عَلَيْهِمْ بِقَوْلِهِ وَفِعْلِهِ. أَوْ فِسْقِهِ بِتَعَدِّيهِ حُقُوقَ اللَّهِ الَّتِي بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ اللَّهِ. فَإِنَّ كُلًّا مِنْ هَذَيْنِ الضَّرْبَيْنِ يَجِبُ الْإِنْكَارُ عَلَيْهِ وَعُقُوبَتُهُ فَكَيْفَ يَجُوزُ أَنْ يُقَرِّرَ فِي الْجِهَاتِ الدِّينِيَّةِ وَنَحْوِهَا فَكَيْفَ إذَا شَرَطَ الْوَاقِفُ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يَصِيرُ وُجُوبُهُ مُؤَكَّدًا. وَمَنْ نَزَلَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الِاسْتِحْقَاقِ تَنْزِيلًا شَرْعِيًّا لَمْ يَجُزْ صَرْفُهُ لِأَجْلِ هَذَا الظُّلْمِ وَلَا لِغَيْرِهِ فَكَيْفَ يَجُوزُ أَنْ يَسْتَبْدِلَ الظَّالِمَ بِالْعَادِلِ وَالْفَاجِرَ بِالْبَرِّ. وَمَنْ أَعَانَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ أَعَانَ عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ سَوَاءٌ عَلِمَ شَرْطَ الْوَاقِفِ أَوْ لَمْ يَعْلَمْ.
