00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:08.669
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:08.669 --> 00:00:14.380
The lapses of the student between overlooking and negligence.

00:00:14.380 --> 00:00:20.379
Sometimes, a student may commit certain lapses that the mentor dislikes.

00:00:20.379 --> 00:00:27.379
However, the mentor may overlook them, realizing that constant correction for every lapse

00:00:27.379 --> 00:00:32.380
might trigger a counterproductive reaction, such as the recipient becoming alienated or distracted.

00:00:32.380 --> 00:00:40.469
There is no harm in this overlooking, provided it concerns lapses rather than clear-cut sins.

00:00:40.469 --> 00:00:47.469
It must also be done with the intention of balancing priorities and delaying correction until the student matures.

00:00:47.469 --> 00:00:51.500
And until they grasp the underlying flaw within the lapse.

00:00:51.500 --> 00:00:57.500
Furthermore, this overlooking should never lead to neglect or heedlessness.

00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:01.500
Neglecting to provide guidance is just as harmful as being overly insistent upon it.

00:01:01.500 --> 00:01:10.689
It is the mentor’s wisdom that guides them as to when it is best to overlook and when it is best to provide direction.
