Question:
From the honorable Shi'ah, and you mentioned, may Allah preserve you, the hadith that was shared regardingSahih Muslim 35b. The question, may Allah preserve you, is how is removing harm from the path part of faith?
Answer:
It is among the characteristics of faith, yes. It is among the characteristics of faith. This indicates that faith is speech, action, and belief. So removing harm from the path is an action. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) counted it among faith. The highest of it is the saying "La ilaha illa Allah" (There is no god but Allah), which is speech by the tongue. And the lowest of it is removing harm from the path, which is an action.Sahih al-Bukhari 9 This is among the actions of the heart. This hadith combines the speech of the tongue, the belief of the heart, and the actions of the limbs. This is the evidence of the people of the Sunnah and the community that faith is speech, belief, and action, and that it increases with obedience and decreases with disobedience, and that it has branches and is not a single thing, as the Murji'ah say. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
