Mohsen Borhani, the jurist, insists on forbidding evil as stubbornness and venting

Mohsen Borhani, a legal scholar, insists that the persistence of those who forbid wrong is stubbornness and venting of frustration.

Mohsen Borhani, a legal scholar and attorney, wrote to those who wish to forbid wrong, stating that as soon as a woman without a hijab shows a cold or harsh reaction, the person forbidding wrong should only remain silent.

Mr. Borhani, who also has religious education, explained on Monday regarding the rules and conditions of forbidding wrong, writing that an important condition is that the person should believe their words will have an impact; otherwise, they should not engage in this action at all.

However, in a more significant step, the former university professor adds that when the person forbidding wrong encounters a cold or harsh reaction from the woman without a hijab, they should only remain silent and do nothing else.

He wrote that insulting, making noise, insisting on continuing the conversation, trying to persuade, preventing movement and detaining the person until the wrong is rectified, encouraging others to get involved, taking photos, calling the police, chanting against individuals, and dozens of other behaviors, whatever they may be, are not called forbidding wrong.

He continues that these actions are stubbornness and venting of personal frustration, a reaction to feeling embarrassed and humiliated, and are not called forbidding wrong.
