Guiding the Youth Engaged in Political Analysis Regarding Creed
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, this questioner also says: Today, many young people are preoccupied with analyses and political news and are distant from studying aqidah and the books of the Sunnah. What is your guidance for people like them? May Allah preserve you and care for you?
Answer:
This is like the first question we answered, that they should call to what benefits them, brings them well-being, and leads to their success, and that they should leave off the nonsense and things that have no benefit for them. They should not occupy themselves with those things; rather, they should occupy themselves with what benefits them, what is useful to them, and what they are accountable for. Indeed, Allah will question them on the Day of Resurrection. He will question them on the Day of Resurrection about this call, about the Book and the Sunnah, and about what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) brought. Every person on the Day of Resurrection will be asked two questions, the first and the last: "What were you worshipping?" And what does "two questions" mean? "What were you worshipping?" And they will be asked about the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): how did they follow him, and how did they proceed upon his Sunnah? Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
