The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it true that abandoning the means can lead a person to disbelief?
The Shaykh:
Abandoning the means.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
They say that relying on the means is shirk (associating partners with Allah), and they say that abandoning the means is a defect in the Shari'ah, a deficiency, meaning a deficiency in the Shari'ah, because the Shari'ah commanded taking the means.
