Any belief that attributes divine qualities to creation, denies Allah’s perfect attributes, rejects the finality of Prophethood, or doubts the authenticity of the Qur’an and Sunnah falls into false belief. Similarly, relying on superstitions, adopting practices from other religions, or innovating new concepts in matters of faith also oppose the purity of Islamic Aqeedah. Such deviations arise from ignorance, blind following, cultural influence, desires, and misleading sources. Islam commands that belief must be based on clear evidence, sound knowledge, and the understanding of the righteous scholars.
