Carrying the hadiths of those who never did any good upon those who were unable to act
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah love you. The twelfth question: There are some hadiths that some people use as evidence that one who abandons all deeds entirely is a believer who verbally professes faith, such as the hadith "they never did any good." How is this reconciled? May Allah love you.
Answer:
This is an example of arguing with the ambiguous verses, and this is the method of the people of deviation, about whom Allah said:[Ali 'Imran 3:7] They take the ambiguous verses and leave the clear verses that explain and clarify them. Therefore, it is necessary to refer the ambiguous to the clear. It is said: If a person left an act of worship due to a secondary excuse and was unable to perform it until he died, then he is excused. And he should understand the meaning of these hadiths: that this is a man who pronounced the two testimonies, believed in them, and was sincere to Allah the Exalted and Majestic, and then he died in that state, or he was unable to perform the act.
However, he verbally professed the two testimonies with sincerity to Allah and tawhid (the oneness of Allah), as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:. This refers to one who was unable to perform the acts, not that he merely verbally professed the two testimonies, believed in their meaning, and was sincere to Allah the Exalted and Majestic, but had no opportunity left to act before he died. This is the one who enters Paradise by virtue of the two testimonies. The hadith of the "card" (paper) and others with similar meanings are to be understood in this light, as are those who come out of the Fire having never done any good, because they were unable to perform the acts even though they had verbally professed the two testimonies and entered Islam. This is how the hadiths are reconciled. Yes.

As for those in whose hearts is deviation [from truth], they will follow that of it which is unspecific
فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ زَيْغٌ فَيَتَّبِعُونَ مَا تَشَابَهَ مِنْهُHowever, he verbally professed the two testimonies with sincerity to Allah and tawhid (the oneness of Allah), as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever says "There is no god but Allah" and disbelieves in what is worshipped besides Allah, his blood and wealth are inviolable. And it is said: "Indeed, Allah has forbidden the Fire to the one who says 'There is no god but Allah' seeking thereby the Face of Allah."
من قال لا إله إلا الله، وكفر بما يعبد من دون الله، قد حرم دمه وماله، وقال فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ عَلَى النَّارِ مَنْ قَالَ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ يَبْتَغِي بِذَلِكَ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ،
