Summary of Sunni concepts
Belief in the unseen regulates the relationship between reason and transmission
Belief in the unseen is the stem of the tree of faith that cannot be established except on it
Faith in God Almighty, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and destiny
Its entire origin is belief in the unseen
And acceptance of the information mentioned in the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah regarding these six principles
And the certainty that the mind has its limits in and upon perception
The mind is subordinate to transmission, and its role is to reason about God and His Messenger and contemplate the texts of the two revelations
He worships God Almighty by believing in it and its effects
Correct reasoning does not conflict with explicit transmission
If some contradiction appears, it is caused by either corruption in the mind or perception
Or the transfer is incorrect or not explicit
God Almighty described His pious servants by saying:
Those who believe in the unseen and perform prayer and spend from what We have provided them
This is the case with the predecessors, may God have mercy on them
Where they provide transportation over the mind
They benefit from the blessing of reason in contemplating verses and increasing faith
And preparing for what God Almighty has promised His servants of bliss in the afterlife
Reward for good deeds
Or when God threatens the wrongdoers with punishment
They stay away from its causes and what brings it closer to it
The role of the mind is to receive information from God Almighty and from His Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace
He is guided by what he receives
Not to be a judge of the texts of the two revelations
He takes from them what he wants and leaves what he wants
The meaning of this religion addressing the mind
It is that he awakens him and directs him
He purifies him and establishes a correct approach to consideration and thinking
It does not allow him to rule on the validity or invalidity of his legislation
When the text was proven, it was the ruling
The human mind had to accept the text
And let us follow it and implement it
Whether he realizes the wisdom of it or not
The transmission is from God, the All-Knowing, the All-Aware
The mind is not a god that judges validity or invalidity
By accepting or rejecting what came from God
And not realizing the correct role of the mind
A lot of confusion occurs
Whether he wants to deify the human mind
And make him a ruler over the texts
Or those who want to abolish reason
He denied his role in faith, guidance, and deduction
