0:00 Summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah
0:08 Definition of faith
0:10 Faith according to Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama'ah
0:15 Belief, utterance, and action
0:17 It increases with obedience and decreases with disobedience
0:21 Belief is the heart's conviction and affirmation
0:25 It is also called the heart's utterance
0:29 Utterance is the tongue's declaration of the two testimonies and speaking them
0:34 Action is the heart's action
0:37 It is the heart's submission, acceptance, and surrender
0:41 And the limbs' actions in obedience are the genus of action
0:45 Faith, according to the Jahmiyyah, is knowledge
0:49 And according to the Ash'aris, it is affirmation
0:52 Faith, according to the Karramiyyah, is the tongue's utterance
0:56 Even if conviction and acceptance are absent
0:59 Faith, according to the Murji'ah, is affirmation and the tongue's utterance
1:04 Faith, according to the Khawarij, is all prescribed utterances and actions, whether performing an obligation or abandoning a prohibition
1:12 If a person abandons a single obligation or performs a single prohibited act, they become a disbeliever
1:18 The Khawarij and the Murji'ah agree in claiming that faith neither increases nor decreases
1:24 The Murji'ah of the jurists affirm the actions of the hearts and acknowledge their importance
1:30 However, they consider them something other than faith
1:34 They also exclude the actions of the limbs from the definition of faith
1:39 But when asked about the relationship of both the actions of the hearts and the actions of the limbs to faith
1:46 They say they are its necessities and fruits
