Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is meant by the Murji'ah?

Answer:
The Murji'ah are those who say that faith is a statement of the tongue and a belief of the heart, and they do not mention deeds. They say that deeds are not included in faith; a person can become a believer even if he does not do any deeds. This is the saying of the Murji'ah. Yes, they are called Murji'ah because they postponed deeds from the definition of faith; they postponed deeds from the definition of faith. Yes.
