Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen

Believing in all the commands of Allah Ta'ala

Question

Is it true that when you are not certain about some fact in Islam then you don’t believe in that? For example, if I don’t know about a ruling in Islam, I don’t believe in that?

Answer

It is wrong. The right thing is that you believe in all the commands of Allah whether you know it or not. Thereafter when you are confronted with a situation then you don't only believe in it but you embrace and practise it as well. It is stupidity and ignorance to say that I don't believe in what I don't know.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
