Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some scholars disliked dividing the religion into principles and branches. What is the reason for their dislike of that? And is there a basis for their dislike of it?
Answer:
Yes, they disliked it because they fear that some people will be lax in the branches, that they will be lax in matters of the branches. And the fact that they do not delineate this for them is because they hold the religion in high esteem, which is better, there is no doubt about that. Yes.
