Enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong (
al-amr bi-l-maʿrūf wa-n-nahy ʿani-l-munkar) are two important
Islamic requisites from the
Quran: „You enjoin what is right, and forbid what is reprehensible.“ and are considered positive roles in helping others to take the straight path and abstain from reprehensible acts.
