The Obligation of believing in the Books of Allah, The Mighty, The Majestic, revealed to his Messengers, عليهم الصلاة وسلام. Allah, the Exalted said لَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ وَأَنزَلْنَا مَعَهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْمِيزَانَ Surely, we have sent Our Messengers with clear evidences and revealed the scripture to them and the scale (i.e Meezaan) [Sooratul Hadeed (58) 25] Shaykh Al-Uthaymeen رحمه الله Therefore, we believe in every book that Allah revealed to his Messenger; however, we believe in them generally and we substantiate that they are the truth. Specifically, the previous books must have been distorted, altered, and tampered with. Thus, it is impossible for a person to distinguish between the truth and Falsehood within them, and as a result, we say we believe in what Allah revealed of the books in a general manner. Therefore, we are in fear of what has been distorted, altered, and tampered with. This concerens belief in the books. As for acting in accordance with them, this is only for what was reveled to Mohammed صلى الله عليه وسلم and the others (books) have been abrogated by this legislation. (Shiekh Uthaymeens Explanation of 40 Hadiths, Hadith Jibril page 36)
