What is our duty towards young people who do not greet us and act arrogantly when we greet them, thinking that this is a glorification of them and an admission of our mistake?
Youth engaged in da'wah should avoid division so that the ranks do not weaken and efforts do not become scattered, leading to a loss of strength. Allah Almighty says: "And do not dispute, lest you lose courage and your strength depart." They must frequently read about the etiquette of disagreement, for differences among people are natural due to varying understandings. However, these differences should not be a cause for estrangement, as scholars, despite their numerous disagreements, did not harbor hatred for one another. One who strives to mend breaches and reconcile relationships will receive a great reward, and he will not be harmed by the pronouncements of those who believe he was mistaken, as long as it does not involve endorsing an innovation or an error that cannot be correct.
