Question:
May Allah reward you. This question says that its asker observes that some of the young people in this recent period are neglecting and have no interest in learning 'aqidah, studying it, and paying attention to it, and are occupied with other matters. So what is your guidance for such young people?
Answer:
This is a generalization. You say that all the young people are like this. Not all the young people are like that; may Allah be praised, there is much good among them. There are good young people who desire 'aqidah and study it in the institutes, colleges, and the circles of the shaykhs. But some of them, some of them, do not pay attention to 'aqidah. There is no doubt that this is a deficiency and an error. It is obligatory for them to study the correct 'aqidah and learn it, because it is the foundation of the religion and the basis of the religion. If the 'aqidah is corrupted, there is no benefit in the deeds. And if the 'aqidah is sound, the deeds are sound and accepted. It is the foundation. Yes.
