He must use proper
conduct and appealing speech. Say to him, “My brother, I have seen you do such
and such action, I think there may be some reservations about it.” etc. Allaah,
the Glorified and the Exalted, Described the Prophet [Peace and Blessings of
Allaah be upon him] by saying, “And by the Mercy of Allah, you dealt with
them gently. And had you been severe and harsh-hearted, they would have broken
away from about you” [aal ‘Imraan 3:159] Therefore, the objective is that
we all tread on the correct path together and not that we use the mistake of a
brother to disgrace or expose him. All of us are tested and are susceptible to
be deceived, however, the religion teaches us to explain the truth and
propagate guidance.
