I wish people would stick to battling the front they're on without criticizing others who are fighting evil from different angles. What is Islamic faith if not doctrinal beliefs? What is the core of Islam if not the knowledge of God?

and Sufism to spread, as it would suffice for them to manipulate Islam.
2. How could they dream of a better ally than an ideology that excludes actions from the concept of faith and deems the most corrupt person as having no deficiency in their belief?

3. How can you battle feminism and secularism—ideologies built on hermeneutic nonsense, aiming to manipulate sacred texts—when every clear doctrine that Muslims have unanimously agreed upon is reinterpreted? They tell you it doesn’t mean what it says,
claiming the language allows for reinterpretation. This is precisely the paradigm of kalam; they opened the door to reinterpretation, and whatever they dislike is labeled ambiguous. They reject the understanding of the righteous predecessors, claiming it contradicts reason.
So, what would you say to a feminist atheist who argues: “Just as you have reinterpreted passages about God's essence and attributes, why can't we reinterpret passages on women’s inheritance or hijab?" Surely, even if our interpretations were wrong,
they are not on the same level as a misinterpretation regarding God and His attributes.
4. When you have an entire paradigm that undermines the Sunnah of the Messenger of God, treating it as speculative and uncertain, how can you expect to defend the faith?

I can guarantee that every criticism modern rejectors of the Sunnah raise has its roots in the writings of the Ash'arites. Their heretical doctrine led them to weaken many reports arbitrarily, deny them clearly, and even when the reports were proven authentic, they deemed them
solitary reports that contradict reason. Even mass-transmitted reports were reinterpreted—just like they reinterpret the Qur’an. And let’s not forget their deliberate attacks on the Sahabah and the narrators of Hadith, such as al-Razi, for example.
5. How can you fight atheism and feminism when your paradigm allows for the belief that God used inherently problematic and blasphemous expressions because people back then were too simple-minded to understand otherwise? They claim that since we (the kalam Zanadiqah)
are beyond that intellectual level, we can see through the texts and distinguish between falsehood and truth. Thus, it wouldn't matter if we contradicted the consensus of the early generations of Muslims. How can you battle any ideology with an approach that asserts
God spoke in phantasms and unreal things to the extent that many may consider even the stories of the Day of Judgment, Heaven, and Hell to be symbolic or metaphorical, as the Islamic philosophers believe? Yet, the Sufi Ash'arites have no answer for them
because they have taken the same principles and applied them to the Islamic texts. Thus, they cannot cherry-pick what is symbolic and what is not.

there is no conflict if other fronts are being defended as well. Whenever you see deviance in the world, know with certainty that it begins with deviance in doctrinal beliefs.
And I quote what Imam Malik said: "The later generations of this Ummah will not succeed except with what the first generations succeeded with."
