What is the relationship between deeds and faith?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Are deeds a condition for the validity of faith, or a condition for the perfection of faith, with some detail?

Answer:
Deeds are faith. There is no faith without deeds, and faith is not called faith except through deeds. So deeds are part of faith, included in faith; they are not merely a condition, nor a complement, but are of the faith itself. The people of the Sunnah say that faith is speech with the tongue, belief in the heart, and action with the limbs. The sum of these matters, the sum of these three things, is what constitutes faith; faith does not exist except from all of them. If one of them is missing, it is not faith. Yes.
