A--- Mtu anapaswa kujua kwamba vitendo hivi vinne na vinavyofanana navyo si miongoni mwa vitendo vya kufuru ya kivitendo. Vinachukuliwa kuwa hivyo tu kwa sababu vinafanywa na viungo vya mwili kama vinavyoonekana kwa nje. Lakini ukweli ni kwamba hazifanyiki isipokuwa kwa matendo ya moyo, yaani.

A--- One should know that these four acts and the like are not from among the acts of practical disbelief. They are only regarded as such because they are performed by the organs as apparently noticed. But, the truth is that they do not take place unless deeds of tile heart -i.e.

nia, ikhlasi, shauku na kujisalimisha – vimetoweka. Kwa hiyo, ingawa vinaonekana kama kutoamini kwa vitendo, kwa msingi wake vinahitaji kwanza kutoamini kwa imani ya kiitikadi. Kwa sababu hiyo, vitendo hivi haviwezi kufanywa isipokuwa na mnafiki mwenye nia mbaya au mwenye kiburi mkaidi. Hili linaeleza msimamo wa wanafiki katika Vita vya Tabuk. Mwanzoni, {Walisema neno la kukufuru, na wakakufuru baada ya kuukubali Uislamu, na wakapanga lile (njama ya kumuua Mtume Muhammad ﷺ) ambalo hawakuweza kulitimiza}. (At-Tawbah, 74) Lakini Waislamu walipopata ushindi, wakasema, {Tulikuwa tukisema maneno tu na kufanya mzaha}. (At-Tawbah, 65) Hapo ikaja Neno la Allah: {Sema: "Je, ni kwa Allah (Mtukufu), na Aya Zake (dalili, ishara, aya, mafunzo, alama, ufunuo) na Mjumbe Wake ﷺ mlikuwa mkiwafanyia mzaha?" Msitoe udhuru; mmekufuru baada ya kuamini}. (At-Tawbah, 65, 66)

intention, sincerity, passion and submission -are gone. Hence, they apparently look like practical disbelief, but they basically require the dogmatic disbelief first. Consequently, these acts can not be performed but by a malicious hypocrite or a stubborn arrogant. This explains the position of hypocrites in the Battle of Tabuk. In the beginning, {They said the word of disbelief, and they disbelieved after accepting Islam, and they resolved that (plot to murder Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) which they were unable to carry out}. (AtTaubah, 74) But, when Muslims got victory, they declared, {We were only talking idly and joking}. (At-Taubah, 65) Here, came Allah's Word: {Say: "Was it at Allah (the Almighty), and His Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations) and His Messenger «Peace be upon him)) that you were mocking?" Make no excuse; you disbelieved after you had believed}. (At-Taubah, 65, 66)

Hatimaye, hatukuifafanua [Al-Kufr Al-Asghar] Kufr Ndogo kwa "Kufuru ya Vitendo", bali kwa kitendo cha pekee ambacho hakihitaji imani na hakipingani na kauli ya moyo wala matendo yake.
