Hi,
"At a time of [Divine] invisibility, when faith has been cut off from the poor of the nation, punishment does not mend the gap, but only increases it; it appears like a deed of destruction and coercion, Gd-forbid. Since our entire goal is to repair, the law [of punishment] does not apply when it does not repair. We are obligated to bring them back with ropes of love, to bring them to the radiant light to the extent we can."
(R' Avraham Yeshayah Karelitz, Chazon Ish Yoreh Deah 2:16)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
