Question:
Why did the Jahmiyyah, who say that faith is merely knowledge, become a type of the Murji'ah?
Answer:
Because they say that one who affirms is a believer, and one who does not affirm is a disbeliever. They say: No, one is a believer as long as he knows that this is the truth, even if he does not affirm it. Yes.
