بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy

A Believer does not perform a recommended action if it leads to separation, differing and tribulations. Rather, a Believer and a Daa’ee leaves off a recommended action (Mustahabb) if by not doing it will bring about a greater common benefit.

An example of that is that the Prophet (sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam) did not demolish the Ka’bah and rebuild it on the foundations laid by Ibraheem; He [justified this by] saying:

The Quraysh have only recently left disbelief
For this reason, he left the Ka’bah as it was and did not change it – may peace and blessings be upon him – for the greater common benefit.

Shaykh al Allamah Bin Baaz رحمه الله

فلا يفعل مؤمن مستحباً يفضي إلى انشقاق وخلاف وفتنة بل يترك المؤمن المستحب، والداعي إلى الله عز وجل، إذا كان يترتب على تركه مصالح أعظم، من ذلك أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ترك هدم الكعبة، وبناءها على قواعد إبراهيم، قال لأن قريشاً حديثو عهد بكفر، ولهذا تركها على حالها، ولم يغير عليه الصلاة والسلام للمصلحة العامة.
