Question:
What is the ruling on one who says that outward acts do not entail anything but major shirk (associating partners with Allah), such as insulting the mushaf and the like?
Answer:
This is an invalid statement, and a distinction that has no basis. Outward and inward acts, if they contain shirk (associating partners with Allah), are on the same level; indeed, the inward is more severe than the outward. So the Muslim should make his inward and outward pure for Allah (Mighty and Majestic) through tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and steadfastness upon the religion, so that he does not have an inward and an outward that differ. Yes.
