In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful The life of the predecessors between words and deeds
0:11
The position of the predecessors regarding faith
0:15
It is belief, word and deed
0:18
Increases and cuts
0:22
On the authority of Jund bin Abdullah Al-Bajli, may God be pleased with him, he said
0:27
We were with the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace.
0:31
And we are naughty boys
0:35
So they learned faith before they learned the Qur’an.
0:40
Then they learned the Qur’an and increased our faith in it.
0:46
On the authority of Ubaid bin Umair Al-Laythi, may God have mercy on him, he said
0:52
Faith is not wishful thinking
0:55
But faith is a word that is understood and an action that is done
1:01
On the authority of Sufyan bin Uyaynah, may God have mercy on him, he said more than once:
1:07
Faith is word and deed
1:10
And he said
1:11
So we took it from those before us in word and deed
1:16
There is no word without action
1:20
It was said that Ibn Uyaynah increases and decreases
1:24
He said
1:26
So anything?
1:28
It was also said to him, may God have mercy on him
1:32
Faith increases and decreases
1:35
He said
1:36
Do you not read the Qur’an?
1:39
He increased their faith in more than one place
1:43
It was said
1:44
It decreases
1:46
He said
1:47
Nothing increases unless it decreases
1:52
Al-Awza’i, may God have mercy on him, said
1:55
Our predecessors did not differentiate between faith and action
2:01
Act of faith
2:04
Faith comes from action
2:07
Yahya bin Saeed Al-Qattan, may God have mercy on him, said
2:11
One of the imams I realized was saying:
2:15
Faith is word and deed
2:18
Increases and decreases
2:22
The position of the predecessors regarding fate
2:27
On the authority of Abdullah bin Fayrouz, may God have mercy on him, he said:
2:31
Something like this occurred to me
2:35
I was afraid that my religion and my affairs would be ruined
2:40
So I went to Ubayy ibn Ka'b and said:
2:43
Apple Monther
2:45
Something like this has occurred to me
2:49
So I feared for my religion and my affairs
2:53
So tell me something about that
2:56
Perhaps God will benefit me with it
2:59
And he said
3:01
If God had punished the people of His heavens and the people of His earth
3:06
He would torture them while he was not unjust to them
3:10
If He had mercy on them, His mercy would have been better for them than their deeds
3:16
Even if you had a mountain of gold
3:19
Or like Mount Uhud
3:22
Spend it for the sake of God
3:24
It is not before you that you believe in destiny
3:28
So you know that what happened to you could not have missed you
3:33
And what did you wrong would not have happened to you
3:37
And if you die otherwise than this, you will enter Hell
3:42
You do not have to come to my brother Abdullah bin Masoud and ask him
3:48
So I came to Abdullah
3:50
So I asked him
3:51
So he mentioned what my father said
3:54
He told me
3:56
And you don't have to come to Hudhayfah
3:59
Then I came to Hudhayfah
4:01
So I asked him
4:02
He said as he said
4:05
And he said
4:07
Go to Zaid bin Thabit and ask him
4:10
So I went to Zaid bin Thabit
4:13
So I asked him
4:14
And he said
4:16
I heard the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, say
4:21
If God had punished the people of His heavens and the people of His earth
4:26
He would torture them while he was not unjust to them
4:30
Even if he had mercy on them
4:31
His mercy would have been better for them than their deeds
4:36
Even if you had gold like Uhud
4:40
Or like a gold mountain
4:43
Spend it for the sake of God
4:46
He did not accept it from you until you believed in destiny
4:50
So you know that what happened to you could not have missed you
4:55
And what did you wrong would not have happened to you
4:59
And if you die otherwise than this, you will enter Hell
5:04
It was said to Salman Al-Farsi, may God be pleased with him
5:09
What do people say until you believe in destiny, its good and its evil?
5:14
He said
5:15
When you believe in destiny
5:18
You know that what happened to you was not going to happen to you
5:22
And what happened to you would not have missed you
5:26
And don't say
5:28
If I had done such and such, then such and such would have happened
5:33
Even if I didn't do such and such
5:35
It wasn't so and so
5:39
Ubadah Ibn al-Samit, may God be pleased with him, said
5:42
To his son when death came to him
5:46
My son
5:47
I advise you to fear God Almighty
5:51
And he knew that you would not fear God
5:54
Until you believe in God
5:56
And he knew that you would not believe in God
5:59
And you will not feed the truth of faith
6:02
You will not attain knowledge
6:04
Until you believe in destiny in its entirety
6:07
The good and the bad
6:10
He said to him, Father
6:13
How can I believe in destiny in its entirety, good and bad?
6:18
He said
6:19
You know that what happened to you could not have missed you
6:24
Whatever missed you would not have happened to you
6:28
That is, brown
6:29
I heard the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, saying
6:35
The first thing God created was the pen
6:38
He said
6:40
Write
6:41
He said
6:42
And what I write, O Lord
6:45
He said
6:46
Write destiny
6:48
The pen exploded at that hour with what happened
6:52
And what is is forever
6:56
On the authority of Ibn Omar, may God be pleased with them both
6:59
He was asked about fate
7:02
And he said
7:03
Something that God Almighty did not want to reveal to you
7:08
Do not desire from God Almighty what He has refused to you
7:14
Abu Bakr Muhammad bin Al-Hussein Al-Ajri, may God have mercy on him, said
7:19
Commenting on this effect
7:22
This is what Omar bin Abdul Aziz, may God have mercy on him, said
7:27
In his message to the people of destiny
7:30
Saying it
7:31
Because you said
7:33
God has said such and such in His book
7:37
They are told
7:39
They read from it
7:41
I mean the companions
7:42
What you have read
7:44
And learn from its interpretation what you did not know
7:48
Then they said after all that
7:51
It is all book and destiny
7:54
And he wrote Al-Shaqwa
7:56
And it was not possible
7:58
Whatever he wanted, it happened
8:00
And what He did not will, did not happen
8:03
We have no power to harm or benefit ourselves
8:08
Then they desired and were terrified
8:11
And peace
8:14
On the authority of Ibn Abbas, may God be pleased with them both, he said
8:18
Everything is as much
8:21
Until you put your hand on your cheek
8:25
On the authority of Muhammad bin Sirin, may God have mercy on him, he said:
8:30
No people deny that God Almighty knew something and wrote it down
8:36
On the authority of Iyas bin Muawiyah, may God have mercy on him, he said:
8:40
I have not devoted my entire mind to people of desires other than people of destiny
8:47
I said
8:48
Tell me about the injustice in Arab speech, what it is
8:53
They said
8:54
For a man to take what is not his
8:57
I said
8:58
God has everything
9:02
Some of them said
9:05
He who is incapable of opinion is wasting his opportunity
9:09
Even if something is missed, fate will blame
9:14
It was said to Muhammad bin Wasi’, may God have mercy on him
9:17
What do you say about fate and destiny?
9:21
He said
9:22
God Almighty will not ask His servants on the Day of Resurrection about His decree and destiny
9:29
He only asks them about their deeds
9:34
On the authority of Al-Hasan Al-Basri, may God have mercy on him, he said:
9:37
Whoever lies by fate has committed many lies
