Means of Establishing Certainty in Allah

Question:
We have a call from Muhammad from Jeddah. Yes. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah. My brother, I have two questions, O Shaykh. I want to find a comprehensive answer from Your Eminence. The first question. In these days, there is much debate regarding the establishment of certainty. What is the means that achieves this? The second question. A moment, the question. Is the first question clear, O Shaykh? No. Repeat your first question, O Muhammad. The first question: In these days, there is much debate regarding the establishment of certainty, or the firmness of certainty. What is the means that achieves this? Please, O Shaykh, he is asking about establishing certainty.

Answer:
Establishing certainty is achieved by the remembrance of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), by increasing the recitation of the Qur'an, by reflecting upon the Qur'an, by attending gatherings of dhikr, by listening to sermons, lectures, and Friday sermons, and by being diligent in doing so. By this, certainty is strengthened, if Allah wills.
