The Correct Creed Free from Impurities
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Talib from Sudan sent a message via the program's mobile number asking: What is the correct creed free from impurities? And how does a Muslim achieve this creed in speech and action?
Answer:
The correct creed is what we explained in the answer that passed recently: it is holding fast to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in knowledge, action, and belief, and not splitting into sects and factions or following sheikhs and leaders. Rather, the one to be followed and obeyed is the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). This religion and this Islam are not realized except by holding fast to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in knowledge, action, and belief.
And before that, one must learn the religion of Islam, understand the meanings of these pillars, and perform them as required. This is what is required. Allah the Exalted said:[Az-Zumar 39:2-3] So a religion that is not pure does not belong to Allah, namely one into which innovations, newly invented matters, and opinions have entered.
So this does not belong to Allah; this belongs to Satan. What belongs to Allah is unity and submission to the command of Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), following the Book and the Sunnah, and the methodology of the righteous Salaf in speech, action, and belief. This is the straight path, and it is the religion of Islam with which Allah sent His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). So the Muslims should not be divided, each having his own sect, each having his own creed, each having an action he performs alone, separate from the others. This does not belong to Allah; this is a division that Allah does not approve of and does not accept from His servants. Yes.

So worship Allah, [being] sincere to Him in religion. (3) Unquestionably, for Allah is the pure religion.
فَاعْبُدِ اللَّهَ مُخْلِصًا لَّهُ الدِّينَ أَلَا لِلَّهِ الدِّينُ الْخَالِصُSo this does not belong to Allah; this belongs to Satan.
