The reason the author limited himself to certain chapters of creed
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The editors. May Allah have mercy on him. He did not cover all of this creed because it is held that this creed is general. So he mentioned some of it by way of example, such as ruling by other than Allah, loyalty and hostility, and the news of the Hour. What is your opinion on this?
The Shaykh:
It is what he doubted he would mention in this. He did not ask about all the chapters of creed, but rather he took up an important side and dealt with it. As for the other sides mentioned by the questioner, they are found in the clear and lengthy books of creed. One should refer to the lengthy works in his two Sahihs and in his Sahihs, the creed of al-Safarawi, the lengthy books, the lengthy books of the Sunnah. Refer to these chapters in them.
So it is a necessary implication of the author that the treatise or book does not encompass everything related to this discipline, but rather it takes up the issue he sees as isolated for research. And since the Shaykh was in a time when the supporters of the Mu'tazilah and the Asha'irah and those who distorted the attributes appeared, he focused on this side and clarified it to the utmost degree. He also focused on the side of worshipping graves and shrines and the Sufis in other treatises and in other books.
