00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:09.019
A Summary of the Concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah

00:00:09.019 --> 00:00:14.300
Among the harm and negative consequences of failing to understand contemporary reality:

00:00:14.300 --> 00:00:20.300
First, succumbing to the arguments of sophists and deceivers,

00:00:20.300 --> 00:00:23.300
and unintentionally issuing fatwas that align with their desires,

00:00:23.300 --> 00:00:28.300
enabling them to achieve their evil ends by which they afflict the Ummah with turmoil.

00:00:28.300 --> 00:00:33.340
For when certain scholars fail to recognize these cunning objectives

00:00:33.340 --> 00:00:38.340
and issue fatwas devoid of any awareness of these sophists' underlying motives,

00:00:38.340 --> 00:00:41.340
their fatwas unintentionally lead to

00:00:41.340 --> 00:00:44.340
the legitimization of certain evils

00:00:44.340 --> 00:00:47.689
and the propagation of false concepts.

00:00:47.689 --> 00:00:51.689
Second, narrating hadiths to people

00:00:51.689 --> 00:00:54.689
that may cause them internal spiritual trial or confusion

00:00:54.689 --> 00:00:57.689
due to their intellects' inability to grasp them.

00:00:57.689 --> 00:01:00.689
This is the meaning of the statement of 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him):

00:01:00.689 --> 00:01:03.689
"Speak to people according to what they can understand.

00:01:03.689 --> 00:01:07.689
Do you wish for Allah and His Messenger to be denied?"
