Does forbidding evil include sins related to the rights of Allah, such as prayer and fasting, or is it limited to sins that involve transgressing the rights of creation, taking into consideration the Hadith: "Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; if he is unable, then with his tongue; if he is unable, then with his heart, and that is the weakest of faith"?

This statement is false, as itخصص Sharia texts without evidence. The proof of its falsehood is that the Prophet (peace be upon him) intended to burn the homes of those who failed to attend congregational prayers, and that Abu Bakr and the Companions fought against those who withheld zakat. Furthermore, the Sharia established punishments for alcohol drinkers and those who abandon prayer, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) and his Companions applied these.
