This topic summarizes what was previously stated in the ten topics mentioned in the details of the hadiths on the division of the nation. Due to the length and complexity of these topics, I wanted to summarize this book: the topics in the following points so that it is easy for the reader to extract the intended result from
1 - I worked in the introduction to clarify the necessity of referring in every issue of our Islamic nation to the Book of God and the Sunnah of His Messenger because it is the final decision in every issue in which there is disagreement, and I explained in that the sayings of the scholars from the Imams of Islam from the Companions and the Imams who made ijtihad in the issues in which there was disagreement between them and others, as they referred their disagreement to the word of God, and if they did not find it, then to the Sunnah of the Messenger of God, and the goal of every mujtahid is to reach the truth that leads to the pleasure of God, and I detailed that in the introduction by listing many quotations, so take a look.
2 - If the reader notices criticism of some of the statements of the scholars who compiled commentaries on these hadiths or a book on sects and religions, then my criticism of them is a criticism that preserves their scholarly status, and I have demonstrated this criticism with evidence. These are imams and scholars who strive hard, so whoever among them is right will have two rewards, and whoever is wrong will have one reward. Errors are common to humanity because they are part of their nature, and scholars have many mistakes, and perhaps their statements that make the division in these hadiths a reality in the nation of the answer are from the mistakes of scholars. Mistakes have been reported by our scholars in many rulings, in addition to other interpretations and commentaries that are not subject to specific rules and evidence. See what I wrote in the topic of books by scholars on the division of the nation and the quotations that explain that.
3 - I explained in the section on the reason for writing this book the extent of my fear for the nation of Islam from division among them and the exploitation of the enemies to tempt them and that the Muslims turn against each other. Some verses in which the word "nation" is mentioned, then I mentioned the intended meaning of these verses from the books of interpretation and attached two benefits to complete the picture.
11 - In the fifth section, I wrote an explanation of the word "nation" in the language, then I listed some verses in which the word "nation" is mentioned, then I followed it with an explanation in several points summarized from the books of interpretation, clarifying the intended meaning of "nation" in the verses.
12 - In the sixth section, I explained what I and my companions are upon, so I knew who the companion is, then I knew Islam and listed the verses explaining the details of the definition, then I explained who the Muslim is and how he is judged by Islam and listed the evidence for that and explained the mistaken understanding that comes to the minds of some people from some evidence in Islam and disbelief.
13 And I explained in the seventh section - Hellfire - that the Hellfire in this hadith is intended for those who will remain in it forever, not for those who have been made obligated to do so because of a sin. I explained those who will remain in Hellfire forever, and they are the polytheists and the disbelievers by origin, the apostates, and everyone who denied what was necessarily part of the religion and insisted on denying it after the matter was explained to him. Then I explained disbelief and when a Muslim ruler is deemed a disbeliever and when it is permissible to rebel against him. Then I explained when a Muslim is deemed a disbeliever and I cited in that the evidences mentioned in these topics from the Book of Allah, the Sunnah of His Messenger, and the sayings of the Imams. Then I followed it with an explanation of some of the evidence that some people think a Muslim is deemed a disbeliever by. After that, I made an appendix on the issue of those who do not rule by what Allah has revealed, those are the disbelievers, a fatwa by Professor Rashid Rida, and it contains the sufficiency, so look at it.
