00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:08.929
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:08.929 --> 00:00:11.929
The need for tranquility and inner peace.

00:00:11.929 --> 00:00:19.019
The believing servant is never free from the need for peace and tranquility throughout his life.

00:00:19.019 --> 00:00:23.019
He requires this tranquility in his acts of worship.

00:00:23.019 --> 00:00:28.019
So that he may attain true humility and submission before Allah the Exalted.

00:00:28.019 --> 00:00:32.020
And focus his heart entirely upon Him alone, glorified be He.

00:00:32.020 --> 00:00:35.020
Thereby tasting the sweetness of his worship.

00:00:35.020 --> 00:00:38.079
And fulfilling the very purpose of his existence.

00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:43.079
He also needs tranquility when faced with whispers that challenge the foundations of his faith.

00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:46.079
So that his heart may remain steadfast and not deviate.

00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:53.179
He needs tranquility when faced with whispers and intrusive thoughts that undermine his righteous deeds.

00:00:53.179 --> 00:00:58.179
So that they do not gain strength and transform into intentions that diminish his faith.

00:00:58.179 --> 00:01:03.179
Just as showing off does to a person if it accompanies his righteous deeds.

00:01:03.179 --> 00:01:10.340
He needs tranquility and peace when faced with various causes of fear and trials.

00:01:10.340 --> 00:01:13.340
So that his heart may remain firm and his spirit composed.

00:01:13.340 --> 00:01:19.430
Finally, he also needs tranquility during times of joy and happiness.

00:01:19.430 --> 00:01:23.430
So that his joy does not overwhelm him and cause him to overstep his bounds.

00:01:23.430 --> 00:01:27.430
Which would turn that joy into a source of distress and ruin.

00:01:27.430 --> 00:01:32.010
