Taking the concessions for the vulnerable has controls, the most important of which are:

First, the varying capacities of the vulnerable and their degree of endurance.
0:23
This is according to the weakness or strength of their faith.
0:27
Second, verifying that severe harm has occurred.
0:31
Which permits one to resort to prohibited actions.
0:35
Third, differentiating between the vulnerability of a followed scholar.
0:40

0:46
