Answer

(Fatwa: 1721/2889=H/1429)

Apprise them of the correct conditions of the Pir and protect them from falling in innovations and  bad customs. This act of yours shall not be counted among the gheebah (backbiting) which is haram, rather sometimes it is wajib (necessary) to reveal the truth before people. Yes, you should maintain wisdom, farsightedness and politeness in convincing and advising.
