Question

The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.

When a person has an argument with a non Muslim or with a Shia defending Islam or defending Sahabah, even if it is via the internet, does he get rewarded?

Answer

It is Fardh upon every Muslim to defend Islam and the illustrious position of the Sahaaba (Radhiallaahu Anhum) in every possible way including electronic mail, etc.

Just as a person is rewarded for fulfilling his Fardh Salaat, so too will he be rewarded for fulfilling the Fardh of defending Islam and the illustrious Sahaaba (Radhiallaahu Anhum).
