The Shaykh: Ibn al-Qayyim's statement actually requires a brief pause for consideration. You know that there is faith, belief, and knowledge, and you also know that knowledge and disbelief can coexist.
Khalid al-Anbari: Yes.
The Shaykh: But can disbelief and faith coexist at the same time? By faith, I mean the foundation about which the hadiths speak regarding the people of the Fire who are punished according to their deservement due to their practical distance from Islam. When intercession comes, it will bring out whoever had the weight of an atom of faith in his heart. Does this weight of faith meet with disbelief?
