As for his saying: "and His messengers," that you believe in what Allah named in His Book of His messengers, and that you believe Allah has other messengers and prophets whose names only He who sent them knows, and you believe in Muhammad (peace be upon him), and your belief in him is different from your belief in all the other messengers; your belief in all other messengers is your acknowledgment of them, and your belief in Muhammad is your acknowledgment of him, your confirmation of him, and your following of what he brought. If you follow what he brought, you fulfill the obligations, make lawful what is lawful, prohibit what is unlawful, stand firm on the doubts, and hurry to do good deeds. And as for his saying, 'and the Last Day,' that you believe in the resurrection after death, and the reckoning, the scale, the reward, and the punishment, and in Paradise and Hell, and in everything that Allah described. And as for his saying: 'And you believe in destiny, its good and its evil,' that you believe that what has afflicted you was not meant to miss you, and what missed you was not meant to strike you; and do not say: 'If it were not for this or that, it would have been this or that,' and if it had been this or that, then it would not have been this or that, that this is faith in Allah, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Last Day (1) on the Day of Resurrection. Section. From this, among what is asked is that if what Allah has obligated are more apparent actions than the five, then why did he say: 'These five are Islam'? And some people have answered that these are the most apparent symbols of Islam and the greatest, and by the servant establishing them proves his submission, while abandoning them feels like loosening the restraint of leadership. The clarification is that the Prophet (peace be upon him) mentioned the religion, which is the submission of the servant to his Lord absolutely, that Allah has required pure worship from individuals, so it is obligatory for everyone who is able to do so to worship Allah sincerely. These are the five, and outside of this, an obligation is only based on reasons for benefits, thus it is not binding for all people; rather, it either must be an obligation of sufficiency (1) [Sheikh Nasir Al-Albani said: See the book of prayer by Muhammad bin Nasr Al-Marozi, page 88, photocopied by the Islamic Office.
