Are deeds a condition for the validity of faith or a condition for its perfection?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He asks: Are deeds a condition for the validity of faith or a condition for its completeness?

Answer:
Glory be to Allah. They set up a week for us now, and a question like this comes up. We told you that this is the doctrine of the Murji'ah. They say that deeds are not part of faith, but rather a condition, and a condition is known to be external to the conditioned thing. This is misguidance, and I seek refuge in Allah. They want to promote the doctrine of the Murji'ah to us, bringing up this and that at different times. These are false and rejected statements. Deeds are part of faith. Deeds are faith. Faith. Allah called it faith, and no one has a say after that. Yes.
