Summary of Sunni concepts
Exposing the path of criminals and exposing their falsehood
God Almighty said
And thus We detail the verses to clarify the path of the criminals
God Almighty did not say, “And to identify the criminals.”
Rather, he said, “And to discover the path of the criminals.”
What is required is to know the path of criminals, their plots, and their plans against this religion
And not just knowing their people
It is not possible to expose the criminals and identify them except after knowing their path and the ways of their deception
Exposing the path of criminals and exposing them is a must in calling to God Almighty and jihad in His cause
Without it, wrong attitudes will occur, confusion will occur, and people will be misled
Rather, criminals may belittle believers, deceive them, and exploit them for whatever they want
Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim, may God have mercy on him, says about the previous verse
Those who know God, His Book, and His religion know the path of the believers in detail
So the two paths became clear to them just as the path that leads to his destination and the path that leads to destruction become clear to the traveler
These are the most knowledgeable of creation, the most beneficial to people, and the most sincere to them
Clearing the path of criminals is necessary to clearing the path of believers
It is necessary for the preachers to identify the path of the criminals and their heads, explain this to the people, and expose falsehood and its people to them
Exposing the criminals and exposing their machinations and hatred against the religion and its people strengthens the doctrine of loyalty and disavowal
Loyalty to religion and its people, innocence and hostility to disbelief and its people
It indicates adherence to the truth and exerting effort and advice in explaining it to people
The great deception and hatred hidden in the hearts of infidels and hypocrites are also evident
The Muslim becomes more wary of them and is not deceived by their deception, and the feeling of resistance to them strengthens
