A summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah.
0:08
Retreats.
0:11
They mean retreating from the truth.
0:13
And it is a blameworthy characteristic.
0:15
And it is the opposite of revisions.
0:18
And the concept of revisions can be confused with retreats.
0:22
And there is a fine line between them.
0:25
The difference between them
0:27
is that revisions, as previously mentioned,
0:30
are submission to the truth and returning to it when it becomes clear,
0:34
and not being bigoted towards oneself and one's mistakes,
0:37
and continuous self-examination of statements, actions, and positions,
0:42
and their extent of conformity to the Sharia.
0:45
As for retreats,
0:47
they are, for the most part, a turning away from the truth,
0:50
and relapses in concepts and behavior.
0:53
And they describe a state of psychological instability,
0:56
which arises in situations of weakness and trials,
1:00
or in situations of uncalculated impulses,
1:04
or they are reactions to wrong practices
1:08
that lead to a corresponding wrong image.
1:12
Like one who rejects any form of jihad
1:15
due to what he sees of some wrong practices by some mujahideen.
