Summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah
0:08
The People of the Book's denial of the Qur'an is a denial of their own books.
0:13
Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, addressed the People of the Book, saying:
0:18
“And believe in that which I reveal, confirming that which ye possess already (of the Scripture), and be not first to disbelieve therein, and part not with My revelations for a trifling price, and keep your duty unto Me.” (2:41)
0:26
His statement, "confirming what is with you,"
0:29
implies that if you do not believe in it,
0:32
it will result in your denial of what is with you.
0:36
This is because the monotheism and creed it brings
0:39
are the same as what Moses, Jesus, and other prophets brought.
0:44
Therefore, your denial of it is a denial of what is with you.
0:48
Just as your books contain the description of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and glad tidings of him,
0:55
your denial of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,
0:59
is a denial of some of what is in your books.
1:02
Whoever denies some of what has been revealed to him has denied all of it.
1:07
Allah, the Exalted, says:
1:09
“Yet ye it is who slay each other and drive out a party of your people from their homes, supporting one another against them by sin and transgression? - and if they came to you as captives ye would ransom them, whereas their expulsion was itself unlawful for you - Believe ye in part of the Scripture and disbelieve ye in part thereof? And what is the reward of those who do so save ignominy in the life of the world, and on the Day of Resurrection they will be consigned to the most grievous doom. For Allah is not unaware of what ye do.” (2:85)
1:14
“Yet ye it is who slay each other and drive out a party of your people from their homes, supporting one another against them by sin and transgression? - and if they came to you as captives ye would ransom them, whereas their expulsion was itself unlawful for you - Believe ye in part of the Scripture and disbelieve ye in part thereof? And what is the reward of those who do so save ignominy in the life of the world, and on the Day of Resurrection they will be consigned to the most grievous doom. For Allah is not unaware of what ye do.” (2:85)
1:21
“Yet ye it is who slay each other and drive out a party of your people from their homes, supporting one another against them by sin and transgression? - and if they came to you as captives ye would ransom them, whereas their expulsion was itself unlawful for you - Believe ye in part of the Scripture and disbelieve ye in part thereof? And what is the reward of those who do so save ignominy in the life of the world, and on the Day of Resurrection they will be consigned to the most grievous doom. For Allah is not unaware of what ye do.” (2:85)
1:25
And Allah is not unaware of what you do.
