00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:08,990
Summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah:

2
00:00:08,990 --> 00:00:12,990
Domains where the intellect must submit to textual evidence and rulings.

3
00:00:12,990 --> 00:00:19,760
The areas where the intellect has no role other than submission and compliance are manifested in:

4
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,760
Submission to matters of the unseen (Ghayb),

5
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,760
which is among the most essential qualities of the believers.

6
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,760
Allah Almighty said:

7
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,760
“This is the Scripture whereof there is no doubt, a guidance unto those who ward off (evil).” (2:2)

8
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,759
"A guidance for the righteous,

9
00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:35,759
who believe in the unseen."

10
00:00:35,759 --> 00:00:41,789
They are also manifested in submission to Sharia rulings—both commands and prohibitions—

11
00:00:41,789 --> 00:00:43,789
as well as accepting and yielding to them,

12
00:00:43,789 --> 00:00:48,789
whether one comprehends the underlying wisdom of their legislation or not.

13
00:00:48,789 --> 00:00:53,789
They are also manifested in submission to Allah’s universal, predestined decrees,

14
00:00:53,789 --> 00:00:58,789
along with the firm conviction that Allah possesses profound wisdom in whatever He decrees.

15
00:00:58,789 --> 00:01:03,789
This does not mean one should not repel decrees by taking legitimate means,

16
00:01:03,789 --> 00:01:06,790
which are themselves considered part of divine decree;

17
00:01:06,790 --> 00:01:09,790
rather, Allah's decree is repelled by Allah's decree.

18
00:01:09,790 --> 00:01:14,790
And whatever cannot be repelled, one is obligated to submit to Allah regarding it.
