00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:08.960
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:13.269
Ambiguity is contrary to truthfulness.

00:00:13.269 --> 00:00:17.269
Ambiguity and a lack of clarity in dealings between Muslims

00:00:17.269 --> 00:00:23.269
Ultimately leads to straying from the truth and falling into outright lying.

00:00:23.269 --> 00:00:28.269
This, in turn, causes division and the loss of peace of heart.

00:00:28.269 --> 00:00:32.399
And it strips the blessing from the one who deals with ambiguity.

00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:34.399
As the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:38.399
"The two parties to a transaction have the option [to rescind] as long as they have not separated,"

00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:42.399
Or he said, "until they separate."

00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:44.399
"If they are truthful and disclose [the details],

00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:47.399
Their transaction will be blessed.

00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:49.399
But if they conceal and lie,

00:00:49.399 --> 00:00:52.399
The blessing of their transaction will be wiped out."

00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:54.719
Agreed upon.

00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.719
This principle, as it applies to sales,

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:00.719
Also extends to all other areas of interaction,

00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:03.719
Including partnerships, leasing, and marriage,

00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:05.719
And everything else of that nature.

00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:08.719
In any collaborative effort,

00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:11.909
Whether worldly or religious,

00:01:11.909 --> 00:01:13.909
There must be truthfulness and clarity

00:01:13.909 --> 00:01:15.909
When dealing with others.

00:01:15.909 --> 00:01:17.909
Otherwise,

00:01:17.909 --> 00:01:19.909
Whoever wishes to conceal something

00:01:19.909 --> 00:01:21.909
Should not engage with others

00:01:21.909 --> 00:01:23.909
Regarding that matter.

00:01:23.909 --> 00:01:25.909
Let him keep it to himself

00:01:25.909 --> 00:01:28.909
Instead of deceiving them and lying to them.

00:01:28.909 --> 00:01:30.909
Furthermore, it is necessary

00:01:30.909 --> 00:01:33.909
Not to disclose the secrets of the Muslims to enemies among the disbelievers and hypocrites

00:01:33.909 --> 00:01:35.909
Under the pretext of being truthful.

00:01:35.909 --> 00:01:39.060
[Truthfulness is not a justification for such disclosure.]

00:01:39.060 --> 00:01:42.060
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.
