The Shaykh : He said: "And two groups opposed this principle" What is the principle? Increase and decrease, "two groups:
The first is the pure Murji'ah, who say that faith is the affirmation of the heart, and they claimed that the affirmation of the heart does not vary, so the open sinner and the righteous are equal in faith in their view".
The Murji'ah: we have previously spoken about them, and that this term is derived from *rajaa'* (hope) or from *irja'* (postponement).
From *rajaa'* (hope), because they hope for the open sinner, saying: You have no punishment upon you.
Or from *rajaa'* (hope), because they postponed deeds from faith and delayed them from it, so they do not include them in it.
Now, these people say that faith is the affirmation of the heart, and the intended meaning is the pure Murji'ah, who are the Murji'ah of the Jahmiyyah.
Faith is the affirmation of the heart, and they claim that the affirmation is what? That the affirmation does not increase.
So this is based on two things: that faith is affirmation, and that it does not increase.
The refutation of them will come, if Allah wills.
