A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.
The reality of truthfulness (sidq).
Truthfulness is far broader and more comprehensive than being limited merely to truthfulness in speech.
Rather, it also encompasses truthfulness in intentions and aspirations, as well as truthfulness in actions.
For the Arabs say:
"They launched a truthful assault against the enemy,"
meaning their resolve was firm and unwavering.
It is also said:
"So-and-so is truthful in their love and affection,"
and love is an action of the heart, not merely words.
The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said in a hadith regarding the eyes, ears, and all other limbs:
"And the private parts confirm that or belie it."
Agreed upon.
These are actions, not words.
