The ruling on the phrase: "Faith is speech and action, and it is not valid except with action"

Question:
I ask the Shaykh to clarify this phrase: is it correct? It states that faith, according to the people of the Sunnah and the community, is speech and action, so no faith is valid without action, and no action is valid without faith. This is from the perspective of the general category of action. As for the specific instances of action, there is a distinction here: some actions are a condition for the validity of faith, while others are a condition for the perfection of faith. The question ends here.

Answer:
Therefore, the statement is not correct. However, the first part is correct: no faith is valid without action, and no action is valid without faith; this is correct. As for the detailed breakdown of actions, this is a matter of concern. Some people have led to the innovation of sayings and phrases that were not transmitted from the Salaf. It is obligatory for a student of knowledge to follow the methodology of the Salaf and not to invent sayings or innovations on his own. This is not permissible. Yes.
