Summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah

The unity of human personality and its methodology
0:12
Human personality is a single entity in its nature and being.
0:21
Therefore, all its functions should be performed on this basis.
0:25
And personality cannot be sound in its movement, nor can its steps be coordinated,
0:31
except when it is governed by a single methodology, originating in its essence from a single conception.
0:38
But when its conscience and inner self are governed by one law,
0:42
and then its reality and activities are governed by another law,
0:46
such that what is in human reality is from human conception, and what is in the inner self is from Allah's revelation,
0:52
then this personality suffers from something akin to schizophrenia.
0:57
And it lives in a state of psychological conflict,
1:00
and a state of fragmentation between its conscious, heartfelt reality
1:04
and its practical reality in life.
1:07
This is what we witness today in the most advanced countries of Europe and America,
1:12
in terms of misery, anxiety, and suicides.
1:15
And this is the state of everyone who lives with such a miserable schizophrenia.
