Question:
Is correct belief sufficient without deeds and adherence to the Shari'ah of Allah?
Answer:
Belief alone is not sufficient without deeds; deeds are necessary: [al-Baqarah:277]. Deeds are necessary: one must believe in Allah and His Messenger, affirm the oneness of Allah, and perform deeds, fulfilling the obligations of Allah and abstaining from the prohibitions of Allah. Both are necessary: [Luqman:8]. Both faith and deeds are necessary.
