Causing Others To Do A Sin By Doing A Sin, Or A Generic Halal
@Irfan76 sir what o understand from your words is that, when you use the words direct cause, what you mean by saying this is that this action will solely and only cause that sin and nothing else normally , right sir? for example staring at a woman with lust only causes motivation for Zina, regardless of if Zina happens or not, staring with lust will remain sinful in itself. but a thing which cause multiple things good and bad both. then it won’t be direct cause of bad but a mixture of bad and good. so this won’t be sinful. like a hindu buying a phone , it is 100% likely that he’ll use it for doing shirk activities as well, but he’ll use it for other halal activities as well, so his buying of phone and getting phone will not be a direct cause and hence not Haram. and if I have a wish/want for him to get a new phone from market and I suggest him new new phones so that he goes there and buys them because his old phone is slow, then since the phone buying act of his is not a direct cause to his shirk then so his act is not prohibited and I won’t be sinful for my wish and suggestions too, right? so sir direct means solely causing right?
@Irfan76 sir so we are required to avoid the direct causes of a major sin. right? and the indirect cause of something is not sinful, even if a person knows that doing such thing will highly likely, almost certainly, but indirectly cause him to do a major sin later. still doing that action will not cause him sin? am I right?. for example a man has a poor habit the sometimes in peer pressure he sometimes he falls into things which can are somewhat like Riya (like when sometimes he’s sitting in a gathering and then everybody starts making ijtimayi Dua after an event, he was not thinking to make Dua. but watching everybody raise their hand in Dua, he raised his hand as to show he’s doing Dua too, so that other people don’t feel odd think that he isn’t doing whilst everybody is doing…) and many other examples of Riya that occurred with him previously. whenever he falls into anyone of them, he immediately does tawbah. but sometimes later he again find him falling. this happened to him several times. Now when he was about to get married to a girl, he thought that if I marry this girl, a relationship of families will establish and I would be meeting many of her relatives and her family for the rest of my life. they would come home, or I’ll get invited or simply visit them. and in those meetings what if something or some factors again come together and I fall in Riya. it’s not like i fall in Riya everytime I meet someone. but out of hundred incidents of meetings, one or two incidents of Riya do occur. So he came to this conclusion that if I marry this girl, indirectly, but very likely and close to certainly, I’ll fall in Riya several times during my lifelong relationship with her family and her relatives. here this man knows highly likelohood of this marriage indirectly causing some major sin, highly likely. but the marriage is indirect source. will he be sinful? and held accountable before Allah, if he goes for marriage? is he required by deen to not go for marriage? and if he’s previously married, is he required to divorce his wife? will he be sinful for the mere act of marrying? just as mere touching a woman with lust is sin itself, regardless of if Zina happens or not (yes later if the man stops before Zina, then it can be forgiven but the sin was initially recorded). so will his marriage be also recorded as a sin? similar to the example of touching a woman with lust will be recorded as sin?
Inappropriate things are universal. Staring at a woman or touching her is inappropriate in every society. With consent touching is allowed, but it still is considered inappropriate, or not preferred.
