Summary of Sunni concepts
There are three types of temptations in terms of the afflicted person
First, private temptations
It is a man's temptation regarding his family and money
And his son and his neighbor
And the individual misfortunes that befall him
Secondly, public temptations
It applies to all people
As in the Almighty’s saying
And beware of a trial that will not afflict especially those of you who have wronged
It is described as rippling like a sea wave
And like pieces of the dark night
This type of temptation
It has many pictures
One of the most important and dangerous
The temptation of separation, disagreement, and fighting
Including the temptations of spreading sins and heresies
Among them are the temptations of infidels attacking Muslims and weakening them
Including the temptation of Westernization and fascination with Western civilization
Among them is the temptation of tyrants attacking Muslims
And their rule is other than the law of God Almighty
Including the temptations of doubts and desires
He mixed the truth with falsehood
Which has reached its peak in our contemporary reality
After the Internet and smart phones came out
Among them is the temptation of money by consuming usury, sales, and forbidden contracts
Among them is the temptation of women, their display of adornment, and their mingling with men
And other general temptations
Third
Trials affect groups of people
It is a temptation between private temptations and general temptations
Where it is not specific to one individual
It does not apply to all people
Rather, it applies to certain groups of people
He showed these three categories
The first is the category of Kharijites
Those who fell into the temptation of declaring Muslims as infidels and making their blood permissible
Claiming that they are carrying out the duty of enjoining good and forbidding evil
Second
The category of Murji’ah and people of immorality
Those who neglected the ritual of enjoining good and forbidding evil and corruption
Fear of strife, they claim
Among them today
Those who deny the divine preachers and scholars their claim to the truth
He forbade them from evil and commanded them to do good
Accusing them of rebelling against the rulers
Causing strife and destabilizing security
They did not know that temptation is abandoning commands and prohibitions according to their legal controls
Third
The category that wants safety in advocacy
This is a group that wants safety in the call and jihad for the sake of God
She does not want anything bad to happen to her, and she takes this path
Claiming that they are avoiding falling into strife
They did not know that the test was for the sake of God Almighty
A fixed year from the laws of God Almighty
And to abandon the call to prayer and jihad under the pretext of avoiding affliction
It is from the temptation they wanted to escape from
So they fell into it
God Almighty said about people like these
Some of them say
God Almighty warned against this characteristic of him by saying:
And God Almighty said
If good befalls him, we will be reassured by him
If a temptation befalls him, his heart will be on his face
He lost this world and the hereafter
That is the clear loss
