How to respond to those who cite the hadith of intercession, “without any deed they performed…,” to argue that deeds are not included in the definition of faith?

The questioner:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is asked: How do we respond to those who cite the hadith of intercession, which says, “without any deed they performed or any good they brought,” and claim that this is conclusive evidence that deeds are not part of the essence of faith, because they did not remain in the Fire despite not performing any deeds? Is this statement correct?

The Shaykh:
What does faith without deeds mean? The one who abandons deeds by choice does not have faith. If he does not pray or fast by choice, he has no faith. Faith is not just that. Faith is speech, action, and belief. Faith is not merely speech with the tongue or belief in the heart without action; that is not acceptable. This is not a valid argument for them. As for the hadith he mentioned, I have not seen it. Let us bring the text of the hadith. Yes.
