Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Do we say that the conjunction of action to faith is an instance of conjoining the specific to the general? If so, then the attributes are three, which Allah mentioned in Surat al-Asr, and not four.
Answer:
Faith is one, action is two, calling to it is three, and patience against harm in it is four. Why should we make them three when they are four in the Qur'an? In the surah itself. Yes.
