Question:
This questioner says: What is the difference between the Asha'irah and the people of the Sunnah?
Answer:
The difference is clear, the difference is very clear. The people of the Sunnah and the community affirm for Allah the names and attributes, and the Asha'irah deny many of the attributes. They affirm some of them, which are seven attributes, and deny the rest, contradicting the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in affirming the names and attributes for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes. And also in the issue of faith. The people of the Sunnah and the community say that faith is speech with the tongue, belief in the heart, and action with the limbs. The Asha'irah say no, faith is only belief in the heart, and it does not include deeds or words, but rather it is only belief in the heart. This is an error and misguidance.
