Questioning religious dogma is fine - we should go and seek answers to our private questions in private with those who are in knowledge, we should go seeking with the prepared mind to accept their answers hoping them to be sufficient for our satisfaction … the moment we retort and broadcast our “questions” to the world - we are no longer “just” asking questions … we are sowing our seeds of doubt in others (doing anti-dawah) and furthermore doing so when our own knowledge in that matter is incomplete.
Now think about being partly responsible for creating unrest in a society. Say a person starts to talk ill of a religious leader, then it gives another the confidence to start and then another and after a while the talk becomes sour and grows added with lies and slander it becomes something that this new group now considers the religious leader a big threat and then they go out of their way with their newly trained minds to disgrace this religious leader, people on the other side retaliate with anger most likely and then somewhere down the line it creates bloodshed and ongoing unrest …
Fitnah is what we would call a “cancer to society” and just like in cancer treatment “fitnah” is best stopped in the bud, otherwise it will prop up everywhere. Fitnah/Fassad is worse than a single murder - not my words - they are words of the Qur’an.
