00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:08.669
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:08.669 --> 00:00:10.669
The sound heart.

00:00:10.669 --> 00:00:16.600
The sound heart is that which will benefit its possessor on the Day of Resurrection.

00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:18.600
As Allah the Almighty says:

00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:22.600
“The day when wealth and sons avail not (any man)” (26:88)

00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:25.600
"Except for him who comes to Allah with a sound heart."

00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:30.600
It is the quality with which Allah the Almighty described His Prophet Ibrahim, peace be upon him.

00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:32.600
He said:

00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:35.600
“And lo! of his persuasion verily was Abraham” (37:83)

00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:39.600
“When he came unto his Lord with a whole heart;” (37:84)

00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:45.630
The reality of this sound heart is centered upon two pillars: adornment and detachment.

00:00:45.630 --> 00:00:49.630
Adornment with righteous deeds and beliefs of the heart,

00:00:49.630 --> 00:00:53.630
Which serve as the foundation for the righteousness of outward actions.

00:00:53.630 --> 00:00:58.630
And detachment from corrupt deeds and beliefs of the heart.

00:00:58.630 --> 00:01:01.759
Among the most essential forms of detachment

00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:03.759
Is being free from objections

00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:09.760
That corrupt the heart’s submission to the news of Allah the Almighty in His Book,

00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:14.760
And the news of His Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in the authentic Sunnah.

00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:21.790
And which corrupt its submission to the legislative and preordained commands of Allah the Almighty.

00:01:21.790 --> 00:01:23.790
Also among the forms of detachment

00:01:23.790 --> 00:01:26.790
Is being free from corrupt desires

00:01:26.790 --> 00:01:29.790
That corrupt the heart’s love and sincerity,

00:01:29.790 --> 00:01:34.790
As well as its reliance, fear, and hope in Allah the Almighty.
