And its title is: Iqtidaʾ al-Ṣirāṭ al-Mustaqīm — the requirement of the straight path — opposing the people of the Hellfire.
A · Unidentified
Meaning, that the straight path which Allah, Majestic and Most High, said
A · Unidentified
concerning it: “And verily, this is My straight path, so follow it, and do not follow the paths,”
A · Unidentified
“for they will separate you away from His path.” And which Allah, Majestic and Most High, said
A · Unidentified
concerning it: “Guide us to the straight path, the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor,” not
A · Unidentified
“those who earned Your Anger,” and not
A · Unidentified
“those who went astray.” This is the path, the path of Allah, Majestic and Most High, as
A · Unidentified
the Most High said: “And indeed, you surely guide to a straight path, the path of Allah, the One to Whom
A · Unidentified
belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. Surely, to
A · Unidentified
Allah all matters return.” So this path requires, requires opposing these
A · Unidentified
misguided sects. The one who travels upon this path, it is necessary
A · Unidentified
that he opposes these misguided sects, as he, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him, said; as
A · Unidentified
in the verse: “Guide us to the straight path, the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor,”
A · Unidentified
not “those who earned Your Anger,” and not
A · Unidentified
“those who went astray.” So those who earned Anger are those who have knowledge, but they do not
A · Unidentified
act upon their knowledge, like the Jews, for indeed they know, as Allah mentioned; He named them
A · Unidentified
the People of the Book and the people of knowledge, but they did not act upon their knowledge—and refuge is sought
A · Unidentified
with Allah—so Allah became angry with them. And not those who went astray; and they are the Christians,
A · Unidentified
those who worship Allah upon
A · Unidentified
ignorance and misguidance, without evidence. And resembling this are the Ṣūfīs, those who
A · Unidentified
they strive hard in acts of worship
A · Unidentified
and the matters of al-sulūk [spiritual wayfaring], and other than that, but no—so they do not have evidences for
A · Unidentified
what they do except their deeming things good, their tastes, and their ecstatic feelings. They do not have knowledge.
A · Unidentified
And they only rely upon what they have of tastes and ecstatic feelings
A · Unidentified
and the shataḥāt [wild utterances] of the Ṣūfiyyah. These ones go astray; the origin regarding these ones is the Christians.
A · Unidentified
But whoever is like them, everyone who follows their path from this
A · Unidentified
Ummah, as some of the Salaf said: Whoever goes astray from our scholars,
A · Unidentified
then in him is a resemblance to the Jews; and whoever goes astray from our worshippers, then in him is
A · Unidentified
a resemblance to the Christians. So this path necessitates that the one who travels upon it
A · Unidentified
opposes whatever opposes this path, as the Prophet, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him, clarified,
A · Unidentified
for indeed he drew a straight line upon the earth,
A · Unidentified
then he drew lines on its two sides, and he said regarding the straight line: This
A · Unidentified
is the path of Allah. And he said regarding the lines that are on its two sides: And these
A · Unidentified
are paths; upon every path from them is a devil calling the people to it.
A · Unidentified
This is an explanation of His saying, the Most High: And verily, this
A · Unidentified
is My straight path, so follow it, and do not follow the paths, for they will separate you from
A · Unidentified
His path. This agrees with this title completely.
B · Unidentified
Yes, the requirement of the straight path is opposing the companions of the blazing Fire. So the one who travels
A · Unidentified
upon this path, it is obligatory upon him that he does not turn toward these
A · Unidentified
roads and these many paths.
