00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:08,699
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

2
00:00:08,699 --> 00:00:11,660
Disagreement.

3
00:00:11,660 --> 00:00:13,660
Disagreement is part of human nature.

4
00:00:13,660 --> 00:00:16,660
This arises from differences in intellects and levels of understanding.

5
00:00:16,660 --> 00:00:21,660
It also stems from the intrusion of personal desires, ego, and fanaticism toward specific opinions and stances.

6
00:00:21,660 --> 00:00:25,660
Nevertheless, the truth is singular and does not multiply.

7
00:00:25,660 --> 00:00:29,660
However, it may manifest in diverse forms while its essence remains one.

8
00:00:30,660 --> 00:00:35,659
The existence of disagreement does not necessitate enmity, separation, or severance of ties.

9
00:00:35,659 --> 00:00:39,659
Especially when it occurs within the circle of the Ahl al-Sunnah.

10
00:00:39,659 --> 00:00:44,659
For the salaf continued to have disagreements among themselves regarding certain matters of legal rulings.

11
00:00:44,659 --> 00:00:48,659
Yet, love and mutual loyalty remained between them.

12
00:00:48,659 --> 00:00:51,659
Disagreement is divided into two categories.

13
00:00:51,659 --> 00:00:55,659
First, a category in which one of the two parties is praised.

14
00:00:55,659 --> 00:00:58,659
And the other party is condemned.

15
00:00:58,659 --> 00:01:01,659
Such as the disagreement that exists between the believers and the disbelievers.

16
00:01:01,659 --> 00:01:04,659
Or between the Ahl al-Sunnah and the proponents of innovation.

17
00:01:04,659 --> 00:01:07,659
As in His saying, the Exalted:

18
00:01:07,659 --> 00:01:12,659
“Of those messengers, some of whom We have caused to excel others, and of whom there are some unto whom Allah spake, while some of them He exalted (above others) in degree; and We gave Jesus, son of Mary, clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty) and We supported him with the holy Spirit. And if Allah had so wiled it, those who followed after them would not have fought one with another after the clear proofs had come unto them. But they differed, some of them believing and some disbelieving. And if Allah had so willed it, they would not have fought one with another; but Allah doeth what He will.” (2:253)

19
00:01:12,659 --> 00:01:15,659
And as in His saying, the Exalted:

20
00:01:15,659 --> 00:01:18,659
“These twain (the believers and the disbelievers) are two opponents who contend concerning their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, garments of fire will be cut out for them; boiling fluid will be poured down on their heads,” (22:19)

21
00:01:18,659 --> 00:01:22,659
And everything related to matters of creed and its fundamentals.

22
00:01:22,659 --> 00:01:25,659
Which the salaf of the Ummah did not disagree upon.

23
00:01:25,659 --> 00:01:31,659
For distancing oneself from those who oppose these is mandatory and falls under this category.

24
00:01:31,659 --> 00:01:36,920
Second, a category in which both disagreeing parties are condemned.

25
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,920
If this causes division and enmity.

26
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:46,920
And the party that does not make this disagreement a cause for separation and division is praised.

27
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,920
The salaf of the Ummah accommodated this type of disagreement.

28
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,920
And it did not result in division or enmity because of it.

29
00:01:54,920 --> 00:02:00,590
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.
