Question:
Abu Hashim from Makkah al-Mukarramah says: How do we reconcile the fact that faith is faith[An-Nisa 4:136], and that good and evil are by divine decree, with the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) Sahih Muslim 35a?
Answer:
The hadith contains the six pillars of faith: faith in Allah, His angels, His books, and His messengers. These are the pillars of faith. As for the hadithSahih Ibn Hibban 4:41, these are the branches of faith, not the pillars of faith. These are branches and virtues that increase in faith. Yes.
