Muslims Till Death:
AS AS SALAAMU ALAYKUM WARAHMATULLAH WABARAKAATUHU. LET'S START TONIGHT'S EDUCATION. OUR TOPIC IS 👇. *AQEEDAH AT-TAWHEED (Episode 29)*Wednesday 31st December 2025. 10 Rajab 1447
___*PAGE 1*___.

A society, which is not governed by the correct Aqeedah, is an animalistic society, which has lost all components of the blissful life. Even if (such a) society possesses many elements of material life, it gradually leads to destruction, as is witnessed in the disbelieving communities. It is such because (even) these material elements require direction and guidance in order to benefit from their qualities and advantages and nothing can guide it except the correct Aqeedah.

Allah says, *'O (you) Messengers! Eat of the Taiyibat (lawful) and do righteous deeds.'* [Soorah al-Muminoon (23): 51]
And indeed, We bestowed grace on David from Us (saying), 'O you mountains. Glorify (Allah) with him! And you birds (also)! And We made the iron soft for him'. Saying, 'Make you perfect coats of mail, balancing well the rings of chain armor, and work you (men) righteousness. Truly, I am All-Seer of what you do.' And to Solomon (We subjected) the wind, its morning (stride from sunrise till mid-noon) was a month's (journey), and its afternoon (stride from the midday decline of the sun to sunset) was a month's (journey i.e. in one day he could travel two months' journey).

And We caused a fount of (molten) brass to flow for him, and they were jinn that worked in front of him, by the Leave of his Lord, and whosoever of them turned aside from Our Command, We shall cause him to taste the torment of the blazing Fire. They worked for him what he desired, (making) high rooms, images, basins as large as reservoirs, and (cooking) cauldrons fixed (in their places). *'Work you, O family of Dawud (David), with thanks!' But few of My slaves are grateful.'* [Soorah Saba (34):10-13].

Therefore, it is necessary that the strength of Aqeedah not be separated from the materialistic strength. Because, if you separate yourself from the correct aqeedah by deviating to the false beliefs, then the materialistic strength becomes a means of destruction and degradation, as is seen today in the disbelieving countries, which possess the materialistic (strength), but do not have a correct Aqeedah.
___*PAGE 5*___.
✍️...
*The Deviation from the Correct Aqeedah has many causes, which should be known.*
*▫️. Ignorance of the Correct Aqeedah* because of turning away from learning and teaching it, or lack of attention or concern for it until a generation is raised not knowing the Aqeedah and not knowing that which opposes it and what contradicts it. The truth is then deemed to be falsehood and falsehood to be the truth, as *Umar Ibn Khattab (radhi allahu anhu) said,* _'Verily, the bonds of Islam will be destroyed one by one when there arise in Islam people who do not know or recognize Jahiliyah (ignorance).'_
___*PAGE 6*___.
✍️...
*▫️. Bigotry (ta'assub)* towards that, which the ancestors were upon and adhering to it even if it was false, and abandoning what opposes it, even if it was the truth. As Allah says, *'When it is said to them, 'Follow what Allah has sent down.' They say, 'Nay! We shall follow what we found our fathers following.' (Would they do that!) Even though their fathers did not understand anything nor were they guided?'* [Soorah al-Baqarah (2): 170].
___*PAGE 7*___.
✍️...
*▫️. Blind-Following (Taqleed)* by accepting people's statements in Aqeedah without knowing its proof or level of authenticity, as is the case of the Jahmiyyah and Mutazilah, and Ash'aaris and Soofis and others, whereby they (blindly) followed their scholars of deviation who preceded them and thus, they were misguided and went astray from the correct beliefs.
___*PAGE 8*___.
✍️...
*▫️. Extremism or Exaggeration (in honoring) the Awliya and Saliheen (the righteous) and raising them above their status* where it is believed that they bring benefits and prevent harm, in a manner, which none has the ability except Allah. Taking them as intermediaries between Allah and His creation in fulfilling needs and answering the duaa until the matter turns into their worship other than Allah. Seeking nearness to their tombs through sacrifices, vows (nadhr), supplication, seeking aid and asking for help like what occurred among the people of Nuh regarding the pious, when they said, *'You shall not leave your gods, nor shall you leave Wadd, nor Suwa', nor Yaghuth, nor Ya'uq, nor Nasr (names of the idols).'* [Soorah Nuh (71):23] Such is the case of the grave-worshippers of today in many countries.
___*PAGE 9*___.
✍️...
*▫️. Negligence in pondering over the universal and Qur'aanic Ayaat* (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc) of Allah, and being overwhelmed by the facts and figures of the material civilization until they think that this is from the man's ability alone, and they glorify man, and attribute these accomplishments to his (man's) endeavors and experiments alone, as Qaroon said, *'This has been given to me only because of knowledge I possess.'* [Soorah al-Qasas (28): 78] and as man says, *'This is for me (due to my merit),'* [Soorah Fussilat (41): 50].
___*PAGE 10*___.
✍️...
*’Only because of knowledge (that I possess) I obtained it.'* [Soorah az-Zumar (39): 49]
They do not ponder or look at the glory of the One, Who originated this universe, and bestowed in it these magnificent wonders, and He, Who originated man and conferred upon him the ability to derive and utilize these benefits. *'While Allah has created you and what you make!'* [Soorah as-Saffat (37): 96].
