How Islamic Creed Becomes the Cause of Salvation

Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: Shaykh, how does Islamic creed become a cause of salvation from trials?

Answer:
Yes, the Islamic creed upon which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), his Companions, and the righteous predecessors were is the one that brings salvation from trials, because one knows the truth and holds fast to it, unlike the one who is ignorant of the truth and does not know it, so doubts, suspicions, and things may deceive him, and he may think them valid when they are invalid. So it is obligatory to learn the correct creed.
It is obligatory to learn the correct creed, which is the meaning of the testimony that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.
Because the validity of deeds is built upon the correct creed. If the creed is flawed or defective, the deed is not accepted, because it wastes the foundation upon which the deed is built. So it is obligatory to learn the correct creed, even in a concise manner, and to ask about it and give it attention. Yes.
