Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned (may Allah preserve you) at the beginning of the lesson that all people believe in the oneness of lordship. Yes, indeed. It is common among us in Western societies for there to be many atheists who say that there is no God. Is it true that they actually believe in what they say?
Answer:
They deny it outwardly, but they acknowledge it in their innate disposition. No one denies the oneness of lordship by their innate disposition, but they pretend to deny it outwardly. Yes.
