Memorizing the Three Fundamental Principles and the Book of Tawhid at the Beginning of the Student's Journey

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Is it necessary for me at the beginning of my studies to memorize the Three Fundamental Principles and the Book of Tawhid, or is it sufficient for me to just read them repeatedly?

Answer:
My brother, it is not necessary for a teacher to know this creed and these books.
The first thing, the first thing, is to secure a teacher who knows these books and is able to explain and clarify them. Then you memorize them, you read them to him, and you also look into their commentaries, so that what is for the sake of this world, or for the sake of a salary, or for the sake of a reward, is not what you are doing it for, but rather for what is before you, from which you will not be saved except by the success of Allah, and then by this correct creed. Before you is a question and an answer, and indeed, a teacher will ask you, or rather, an angel from the angels will ask you. The angels will ask you, so prepare for this. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
