Question:
What is obligatory upon the specific members of the Muslim community, Shaykh Salih, toward the rest of the individuals?

Answer:
It is obligatory upon the specific members, meaning every individual, whether male or female, to learn from the rulings of his religion what is necessary for his religion to be sound, and to know the rulings of the creed, which is the foundation, and to know the rulings of the prayer, the rulings of zakah, the rulings of fasting, and the rulings of Hajj, and to learn the pillars of faith. By doing so, he performs his worship in the correct manner. This amount of knowledge is an individual obligation (fard 'ayn) for every Muslim man and woman, and it is what is necessary for the religion of the servant to be sound.
