Advice for the one whose wife goes to a school that calls for the doctrine of the Murji'ah

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: My wife wants to go to her school, which holds the view of the Murji'ah regarding deeds. I know that she listens to you, so what is your advice to her and to me?

Answer:
My advice is that she not go to them, do not let her go to them, lest her creed be corrupted. She should go to a school that is upright on the methodology of the people of the Sunnah and the community. This is one of the trials, meaning that people, women, children, Bedouins, city dwellers, and the ignorant are chewing on matters of creed in this manner. This is a trial and an evil, and the one who introduced this trial to the Muslims bears this evil. People were in safety and tranquility regarding their creed, and the mention of the doctrine of the Murji'ah was not known in these lands. It only came about through the hands of people who claim knowledge of hadith, and who claim that they care for hadith, athar, and sunan, but they are not so. If they knew hadith and knew the hadiths, many of which state that deeds are part of faith and other hadiths, then these people claim knowledge of hadith while they are ignorant, knowing nothing, neither knowledge of hadith nor anything else. So they introduced this fear and this argumentation to the people. It is upon us to beware of this school and its people, and to follow what our Salaf were upon, and what is in our sound books of creed, and not to pay attention to the sayings of these people, and not to let our children or our women go to them, sit with them, and learn from them. Yes.
