The Paths of Guidance and Righteousness

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, what are the paths of guidance and righteousness?

Answer:
Ask Allah for guidance, learn the Book and the Sunnah, and act upon them. These are the causes of guidance, along with asking Allah for guidance and doing so frequently. Allah has commanded us and made it obligatory for us to recite Surat al-Fatihah in every unit of the prayer, and at its end:
(6) Guide us to the straight path - (7) The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray.اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ
[Al-Fatihah 1:6-7]
. You ask Allah for guidance, and you must also learn the knowledge by which you know guidance and the correct path. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
