00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:08,929
Summary of Sunni concepts

2
00:00:08,929 --> 00:00:15,140
The relationship between worship, righteousness, and good character

3
00:00:15,140 --> 00:00:20,140
Because it was worship in its comprehensive sense, as Ibn Taymiyyah defined it

4
00:00:20,140 --> 00:00:28,140
A comprehensive name for everything that God loves and is pleased with, whether outward and hidden words and deeds

5
00:00:28,140 --> 00:00:35,140
He defined righteousness as a name given to all goodness, benevolence, and virtue

6
00:00:35,140 --> 00:00:40,140
Or it is a comprehensive word for all the qualities of goodness

7
00:00:40,140 --> 00:00:48,140
God Almighty said: “Righteousness is not that you turn your faces towards the east and the west.”

8
00:00:48,140 --> 00:00:57,140
But righteous is he who believes in God, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets

9
00:00:57,140 --> 00:01:02,140
He gave money out of love for his relatives, orphans, and the poor

10
00:01:02,140 --> 00:01:10,140
And he built the way and beggars and freed slaves, and he established prayer and paid zakat

11
00:01:10,140 --> 00:01:19,140
And those who fulfill their promise when they make a covenant, and are patient in times of hardship, adversity, and times of distress

12
00:01:19,140 --> 00:01:25,140
Those are the ones who are truthful and those are the pious

13
00:01:25,140 --> 00:01:33,140
Mentioning the pillars of faith, desirable and obligatory spending, prayer, fulfillment of covenants, and patience

14
00:01:33,140 --> 00:01:39,140
Thus, righteousness combined belief, worship, and morals

15
00:01:39,140 --> 00:01:45,140
In this way, righteousness overlaps or is synonymous with worship in its comprehensive sense

16
00:01:45,140 --> 00:01:50,140
When the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, was asked about righteousness and sin

17
00:01:50,140 --> 00:01:55,140
He said: Righteousness is good character. Narrated by Muslim

18
00:01:55,140 --> 00:02:03,140
This is a special meaning that falls short of righteousness in the field of morals, and it is an additional rhetorical shortcoming

19
00:02:03,140 --> 00:02:10,139
It means that good character is a great pillar of righteousness, not that it is all of righteousness

20
00:02:10,139 --> 00:02:16,139
This is as he, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Hajj is Arafat

21
00:02:16,139 --> 00:02:21,139
What is meant is that it is its greatest pillar because Hajj is restricted to it

22
00:02:21,139 --> 00:02:30,210
Thus it becomes clear that good character is a great pillar of righteousness and worship in its comprehensive sense

23
00:02:30,210 --> 00:02:35,340
Just as righteousness intersects with worship in its comprehensive sense

24
00:02:35,340 --> 00:02:41,340
It also overlaps with piety, as there is a generality and a specificity between them

25
00:02:41,340 --> 00:02:46,340
If it is combined in remembrance, righteousness is directed to acts of obedience

26
00:02:46,340 --> 00:02:50,340
Piety is directed towards avoiding things that are forbidden

27
00:02:50,340 --> 00:02:54,340
If they are separated, they will reunite with each other
