00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:09.019
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:09.019 --> 00:00:11.019
The reality of truthfulness (sidq).

00:00:11.019 --> 00:00:16.789
Truthfulness is far broader and more comprehensive than being limited merely to truthfulness in speech.

00:00:16.789 --> 00:00:23.789
Rather, it also encompasses truthfulness in intentions and aspirations, as well as truthfulness in actions.

00:00:23.789 --> 00:00:25.789
For the Arabs say:

00:00:25.789 --> 00:00:28.789
"They launched a truthful assault against the enemy,"

00:00:28.789 --> 00:00:32.789
meaning their resolve was firm and unwavering.

00:00:32.789 --> 00:00:34.789
It is also said:

00:00:34.789 --> 00:00:37.920
"So-and-so is truthful in their love and affection,"

00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:41.920
and love is an action of the heart, not merely words.

00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:48.920
The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said in a hadith regarding the eyes, ears, and all other limbs:

00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:53.020
"And the private parts confirm that or belie it."

00:00:53.020 --> 00:00:55.020
Agreed upon.

00:00:55.020 --> 00:00:59.020
These are actions, not words.

00:00:59.020 --> 00:01:03.689
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.
