Sheikh Saaleh al-Fauzaan, may Allaah preserve him, was asked, “How do our essential beliefs influence and affect the life of a Muslim and how he lives it?” He replied,
‘Yes, the correct essential beliefs enable a Muslim to proceed upon clarity and understanding in the affairs of his religion. As these beliefs are the very head and core of the religion. Your actions and endeavors will not be truly correct until after your fundamental beliefs have been corrected and made sound. As one’s endeavors must be based upon you having the correct beliefs, and those evidences found in the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah, may Allaah’s praise and salutations be upon him.’
