A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

The formalization of concealing the truth.
0:11
The most severe form of concealing the truth and obscuring it with falsehood.
0:16
Is the formalization of the act of concealment itself.
0:19
And the bestowing of legitimacy upon it.
0:21
And shifting it from a state of temporary, forced exception.
0:25
To becoming the established, sanctioned norm.
0:28
Thereby flipping the perception of what is known and true in people’s minds into something rejected and false.
0:34
Among its most dangerous manifestations.
0:36
Is when a person becomes unable to openly declare disavowal of the polytheists and disbelief in the taghut.
0:41
Due to some temporary reason.
0:44
Just as Allah the Exalted says:
0:47
“Let not the believers take disbelievers for their friends in preference to believers. Whoso doeth that hath no connection with Allah unless (it be) that ye but guard yourselves against them, taking (as it were) security. Allah biddeth you beware (only) of Himself. Unto Allah is the journeying.” (3:28)

“Let not the believers take disbelievers for their friends in preference to believers. Whoso doeth that hath no connection with Allah unless (it be) that ye but guard yourselves against them, taking (as it were) security. Allah biddeth you beware (only) of Himself. Unto Allah is the journeying.” (3:28)
1:01
"And Allah warns you of Himself."
1:04
"And to Allah is the final destination."
1:06
Consequently, a person begins to find comfort in appeasing the disbeliever at all times.
1:10
And this appeasement transforms into sycophancy and allegiance.
1:15
This sycophancy, born of weak faith, becomes institutionalized.
1:19
Until it becomes the foundational principle.
1:21
And calls are made for religious tolerance and the alleged convergence of religions.
