00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:09.150
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:09.150 --> 00:00:11.150
Reconciling differences between people.

00:00:11.150 --> 00:00:18.620
Reconciling differences holds a position of great significance within the realm of noble character.

00:00:18.620 --> 00:00:20.620
Allah the Exalted says:

00:00:20.620 --> 00:00:22.620
They ask you concerning the spoils of war.

00:00:22.620 --> 00:00:26.620
“They ask thee (O Muhammad) of the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of war belong to Allah and the messenger, so keep your duty to Allah, and adjust the matter of your difference, and obey Allah and His messenger, if ye are (true) believers.” (8:1)

00:00:26.620 --> 00:00:30.620
“They ask thee (O Muhammad) of the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of war belong to Allah and the messenger, so keep your duty to Allah, and adjust the matter of your difference, and obey Allah and His messenger, if ye are (true) believers.” (8:1)

00:00:30.620 --> 00:00:35.659
“They ask thee (O Muhammad) of the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of war belong to Allah and the messenger, so keep your duty to Allah, and adjust the matter of your difference, and obey Allah and His messenger, if ye are (true) believers.” (8:1)

00:00:35.659 --> 00:00:39.659
Thus, the command came in the verse to reconcile differences between people.

00:00:39.659 --> 00:00:43.659
It is framed by a general preceding command to fear Allah.

00:00:43.659 --> 00:00:47.659
"So fear Allah," followed by a general command thereafter:

00:00:47.659 --> 00:00:49.659
"And obey Allah and His Messenger."

00:00:49.659 --> 00:00:55.719
Then, this was followed by an appeal to the sentiments of faith within the hearts of the believers.

00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:58.719
"If you are believers."

00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:03.719
Thus, He made the reconciliation of differences a condition for the realization of faith.

00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:08.329
