00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:08,830
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

2
00:00:08,830 --> 00:00:13,830
Defending the truth is an obligation upon every believer according to their capacity.

3
00:00:13,830 --> 00:00:22,109
Everyone who identifies with the truth must defend it and repel falsehood by whatever means they can.

4
00:00:22,109 --> 00:00:28,109
If the banner of jihad by the spear is present and one is among those qualified for it, they should participate.

5
00:00:28,109 --> 00:00:32,109
But if that banner is absent due to circumstances imposed by the lived reality,

6
00:00:32,109 --> 00:00:38,109
then one should strive through whatever means they can, such as calling to the truth, clarifying it, or contributing wealth.

7
00:00:38,109 --> 00:00:43,109
Or by supplicating that Allah grant victory to the truth and its people, and so on.

8
00:00:43,109 --> 00:00:48,109
It is feared that those who fall short in performing what they are capable of in this regard

9
00:00:48,109 --> 00:00:52,109
may fall under the category of those who turn their backs on the day of battle,

10
00:00:52,109 --> 00:00:57,109
having prioritized the fleeting worldly life over the love of Allah and His Messenger, peace be upon him.

11
00:00:57,109 --> 00:00:59,109
Allah the Exalted says:

12
00:00:59,109 --> 00:01:07,109
“Say: If your fathers, and your sons, and your brethren, and your wives, and your tribe, and the wealth ye have acquired, and merchandise for which ye fear that there will no sale, and dwellings ye desire are dearer to you than Allah and His messenger and striving in His way: then wait till Allah bringeth His command to pass. Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.” (9:24)

13
00:01:07,109 --> 00:01:12,109
"...and wealth you have acquired, and commerce you fear will decline..."

14
00:01:12,109 --> 00:01:20,109
“Say: If your fathers, and your sons, and your brethren, and your wives, and your tribe, and the wealth ye have acquired, and merchandise for which ye fear that there will no sale, and dwellings ye desire are dearer to you than Allah and His messenger and striving in His way: then wait till Allah bringeth His command to pass. Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.” (9:24)

15
00:01:20,109 --> 00:01:23,109
“Say: If your fathers, and your sons, and your brethren, and your wives, and your tribe, and the wealth ye have acquired, and merchandise for which ye fear that there will no sale, and dwellings ye desire are dearer to you than Allah and His messenger and striving in His way: then wait till Allah bringeth His command to pass. Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.” (9:24)

16
00:01:23,109 --> 00:01:28,109
And Allah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people.
