From the beliefs of the Murji'ah is that they
focus on the texts which describe punishment that exist for particular as
merely to instill fear. The Muslim who has belief in his heart will never be punished because the Aayaat which describe punishment are not applicable to
him. Rather they have been Revealed for the purpose of instilling fear alone.
This is again a baseless claim and a lie
against the Sharee'ah. A simple way to respond to such claims is by logically
inserting, if someone is trying to scare another with punishment then this
would be sufficed to stay away and deter oneself from any likelihood of being susceptible to punishment. If there is no possibility
of one being punished then the element of fear will therefore cease to exist because
the intellectual will realise that the threat of punishment has no substance
behind it. Consequently, the presence of fear will cease to exist.
The Murji'ah by contradiction agree that
the texts that discuss hope and reward are taken in their apparent, and they
are not restricted in their meaning and understanding.
