Issue : Preparation for Salah with Khushu'

Surah Al-Mu'minun (23:1-10)

This is the first feature. Allah ﷻ tells the characteristics of the believer. We must take these criteria from Allah ﷻ himself because this matter can not only be said, but must follow the criteria that Allah Allah has set.

This criterion is not we who make it ourselves, but from God's determination ﷻ. The first is about prayer. Be devout in prayer.

The first and foremost attribute that must be present in a believer is devotion in their prayers. It means tawajjuh (focus) of the heart in prayer to Allah ﷻ for feeling fear and glorifying Allah ﷻ. The feeling of fear is based on a high sense of respect and fear (wonder) and admiration (wonder) to God ﷻ.

This is because they know the nature of Jalaliah and Jamaliah (hard and soft nature) of Allah ﷻ. We fear Allah ﷻ because of the nature of His jalaliah and we glorify Allah ﷻ because of the nature of His jamaliah. There needs to be an understanding of these two types of properties.

So when there are these two feelings in the heart of a servant in his prayers, then his prayers will be devout. Not only is his heart humble, but his body is also devout and does not move to hold here and there.

According to Al-Hakim and Tirmizi, at one time the Prophet ﷺ saw a man sweeping his beard while praying then the Prophet ﷺ said: "If this man's heart is humble, his limbs will calm down."

Being devout in prayer is nothing but what can be done by a person who focuses his heart on his prayer, is more concerned with prayer and preoccupies with it, and forgets everything else. He did not allow his thoughts other than prayer to fill his mind.

Only in this situation can one feel peace and enjoyment in his prayers, as said by the Prophet ﷺ in the hadith narrated by Imam Ahmad and Imam Nasai through the companion of Anas from the Prophet ﷺ who has said:

"حُبِّبَ إليَّ الطِّيب وَالنِّسَاءُ ، وَجُعِلَتْ قُرَّةُ عَيْنِي فِي الصَّلَاةِ"

I am made happy with fragrances, women, and made my heart happy when in prayer.

Therefore, the first characteristic of believers is that they are always devout in their prayers because the word خاشِعونَ used is in the form of nouns that mean "something permanent". This means that not only once in a while can they pray sincerely. They have understood what the prayer is and the will in the prayer, so they can always be devout.

So prayer is a very important thing and therefore Allah ﷻ puts this criterion as the first characteristic of the attributes of a believer. And it is told that their nature is devout in their prayers.

So there is a lot of discussion on how to get devout in this prayer and we need to refer and find the information so that we can achieve devotion in prayer.

First, there must be a sense of love with prayer. Such is the nature of Rasulullah ﷺ and his companions رضي الله عنهم.

قال الإمام أحمد: حدثنا وكيع, حدثنا مسعر, عن عمرو بن مرة, عن سالم بن أبي الجعد, عن رجل من أسلم, أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: "يا بلال, أرحنا بالصلاة"

Imam Ahmad said, has narrated to us Waki ​​', has narrated to us Mis'ar from Amr ibn Murrah, from Salim ibn Abul Ja'd, from a man from Bani Aslam, that Rasulullah ﷺ once said: O Bilal, entertain us with prayer.

When you can feel the importance of the prayer, then you will feel the sweetness of the prayer and from that you will be able to be devout in the prayer.

So what does 'devout' mean? It means fear that causes the body to become stiff and immobile. Isn't it when we feel so scared, our movements seem to be locked up that we can no longer move?

For example, we are surprised by the arrival of a truck that suddenly wants to hit us. We should have run, right? But being too scared, our steps become stiff, right? This usually happens because the feelings in the heart can be born of our physical actions.

Prayer is a time when we are facing Allah ﷻ, we are complaining about our fate and what we are facing; and at the same time Allah ﷻ is giving us advice and that advice is a very big piece of advice to convey sometimes when it touches our heart, it can cause us to cry.

If you can feel this feeling, then it must be very beautiful, right? That means we have been affected by our prayers.

And the effect of the prayer should be carried until the prayer comes out because we have just received advice from Allah ﷻ and we should keep that advice and practice it. But sometimes after a few hours, we may forget, right? We begin to be impressed with worldly things as well.

Therefore, we must pray again to remind us, and then and again and again throughout the day and every day. Because of that, prayers have been arranged in those five times so that we get reminders throughout the day. All of that is a reminder from God ﷻ to us.

The next feature is that the believer turns away from interfering in things that are neglected. In the previous verse, it has been mentioned about prayer. But, we also know that when in prayer and only after takbir, suddenly a variety of memories of worldly things come into our minds.

So those who are devout in prayer will عرض (turn away) and ignore the disturbing thoughts. This is when we talk about prayer.

Kalimah اللَّغوِ (lagha) is an activity that is not beneficial both in this world and in the hereafter. It is not something that is clearly dangerous, but it is a waste of time. This is usually done by our people where often we will chat and hang out without any purpose and waste time until we do not realize the time has passed.

Furthermore nowadays there are many social media applications that cause people to spend too much time making useless things. When doing things that are lagha, you will be left behind from doing things that are beneficial.

So those who believe are not only do not do things that are اللَّغوِ but they will leave those who they think can cause them to become lagha, so that they are not attracted to the act.

We can fulfill the desires of our lusts to our wives. That is through legal marriage. When it is valid, then the child born from the marriage will be recognized and they will be taken care of.

Islam is a practical religion. Indeed, every human being has a desire for male and female relationships. We are not like heretical religions that prevent religious people from getting married like Christianity, Buddhism and Hinduism. Those religions have rejected human nature.

It is not appropriate when their religious members such as priests and monks are barred from getting married. Who told? When that happens, then there is indeed a problem. Because of that we always hear cases of pastors sodomizing boys in church and so on. That is what happens when the normal will is restrained.

And Islam is also not like the Shiite religion (because they are not even Muslims) which allows mutaah marriage. This is also dangerous because it is actual adultery and prostitution. So Shiites are the only religion in the world that allows, even encourages adultery.

So we have to explain to the community about this Shiite. Need to understand religion and need to know how misguided they are. Because if you are ignorant of religion, then you are told that the Shiites allow Mutaah Marriage, then many will be attracted. Even though it is an illegal thing to do and involves tyranny to women and children born as a result of the mutaah marriage.

All of us hope to get devout in prayer. And devotion in the prayer can be found by doing a lot of praying. Just as we want to gain skills in something, then we need to always do that thing. For example, athletes will always train, right?

So people who want to be proficient in prayer should always pray - that is, they not only perform the obligatory prayers but they take care of the prayers with the addition of circumcision prayers. This teaches us that obligatory prayers will not be perfect without circumcision prayers. Because of course we make mistakes and shortcomings in our obligatory prayers, right? So the shortcomings in the obligatory prayers are covered by performing the circumcision prayers.

For men, the meaning of 'keeping' the obligatory prayers is by performing congregational prayers. If not praying in congregation then the man is not counted as keeping the obligatory prayers. And this congregational prayer should be done in the mosque, not at home with family or in the office with colleagues.

We have mentioned one by one the nature of the believer. Let's list:

2. Leaving the lagha thing

3. Doing zakah (tazkiatun nafs)

4. Protect the genitals from illegal things

If we look at the list above, it starts with 'prayer' and ends with 'prayer' as well. This signals that if we keep our prayers, those other attributes will also come.

Those who have the characteristics that have been mentioned above are the ones who deserve to be called mukminoon. And they are the ones who will 'inherit'; but inherit what? Allah ﷻ does not mention in this verse and makes it a question. Those who read so far will wonder in his mind: inherit what? This is the effect that arises (wondering to know).

When it is said to 'inherit', it means it will be their right. Will always be able to, as if we can inherit property from our father's legacy - it will be our right. If given the parable of the land, it means the person who inherited it can get a grant, and not just rent. He can do whatever he wants with the goods he has inherited.

1. Achieving success in this world and the hereafter

In Sūrah al-M'uminūn, Allah mentions that the first trait of the successful is khushūʿ in ṣalāh. Allah says, "Successful indeed are the believers, who are humble in their ṣalāh" (23:1-2).

Thus, if you want true success, firstly, you must have īmān and secondly, you should perform ṣalāh with khushūʿ.

2. Becoming sin-free like a newborn

Amr b. ʿAbasah (raḍiy Allāhu 'anhu) narrated a long ḥadīth in which he described the virtues of wuḍū'. He reported the Prophet ﷺ saying, "And if he stands to pray and praises Allah, extols Him and glorifies Him with what He is most deserving of; and shows wholehearted devotion to Allah, he will revert to being sinfree (as pure) as he was on the day his mother gave birth to him."

ʿAmr b. ʿAbasah (raḍiy Allāhu 'anhu) states that he heard this from the Prophet ﷺ more than seven times (Muslim).

3. Having previous sins forgiven

ʿUthmān (raḍiy Allāhu 'anhu) performed wuḍū' and then said, "I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ perform wuḍū' like this and he then said, 'Whoever performs wuḍū' like this wuḍū' of mine, then performs two rakʿah of prayer during which he does not let his thoughts wander, Allah will forgive all of his previous sins'" (Bukhārī).

4. Earning a guarantee of Paradise

ʿUqbah b. ʿĀmir (raḍiy Allāhu 'anhu) heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "If any Muslim performs wuḍū', and does so properly, then stands and performs two rakʿah of prayer in which he focuses with his heart as well as his face [i.e. is not physically distracted], Paradise is guaranteed for him" (Muslim).

When ʿAbdullāh b. al-Zubayr (raḍiy Allāhu 'anhu) stood up to pray, he was described as being 'like a stick (i.e. motionless) with khushūʿ'. Once, during the siege of the Kaʿbah, whilst he was prostrating, a catapult struck him and tore part of his garment, but he did not even raise his head!

TOPIC 7: THE VIRTUES FOUND IN HAJJ / UMRAH 

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Umrah gives you a chance to become the holy guest of Supreme Creator of the whole universe, who is King of all Kingdoms. The first and most pleasant benefit that pilgrims can get through Umrah is to be a guest of Allah Almighty where He SWT Himself hosts the one who spends his time and wealth to oblige Allah Almighty with pure intentions. Hazrat Abu Huraira RA reported that Prophet PBUH said:
"The guests of Allah are three: The Ghazi (the warrior who fights in Jihad just for the sake of Allah), the Hajji (the pilgrim who performs Hajj) and the Mu'tamir (the pilgrim who performs Umrah)".
Reference: Hadith No. 2626, Book of The Rites of Hajj, Sunan An-Nasa'i, Vol. 3.

Just the thought of being a guest of Allah gives shivers but this is the most beautiful feelings in the world. From the moment pilgrim reach there he can feel the strange calmness in himself. It benefits him to get the strange peace, pureness, cleanliness and satisfaction to his soul, body and mind.

2. Chance to remove his sins:

Every human being commit sins as it is a nature of mankind but Umrah gives us a chance to removes our sins and cleanse our body and soul from the burden of past committed sins. Hazrat Abu Huraira RA narrated that our beloved Holy Prophet PBUH said:
"From one Umrah to another is expiation for what comes in between, and 'Hajj Al-Mabrur' brings no reward less than Heaven".
On the day of judgement it makes us safe due to the sluicing of our all minor sins that we committed before going on Umrah. So the person becomes clean from all his past committed sins and feels like newly born whose soul and body is pure without any burden of sins. He Almighty gives His creation a chance to ask for forgiveness and He definitely forgives His person in a blink of an eye. So, it is our chance to ask Him what he wants and Umrah is best way.

3. Strengthen our Eman:

In today's hustle and bustle we commit lots of sins without even realizing them which gradually weak our faith. But when a person went to perform Umrah with true and pure intentions just for the sake of Allah Almighty and fulfill all the rituals of Umrah without any error it definitely brings him closer to Allah SWT. Along with various benefits of Umrah it also benefits its performer in strengthen his Eman. Strong Eman is the most pleasing thing that believer have and without it heis just like any other ordinary human being. He has to keep in mind what makes him special in this life and hereafter is his Eman. So we have to do effort to make our faith strong. We already present you a blog on steps to strengthen our Eman you can check this to get more information.

4. Gives you bodily strength:

The beauty of Islam is that it benefits you in every way although one is doing it for Allah Almighty but He is the Best of the Best Giver who gives you lot more than we deserve. When you performs Umrah it gives you strength and helps you to get over your bodily diseases as your soul becomes light your body also feels lighter. Umrah enhances the daily provisions and nourishment and makes our body healthy.

5. Removes Poverty:

Umrah is one of the best acts of worship and the beautiful Sunnah of our beloved Holy Prophet so how is it possible that Allah SWT not give any benefit in return. The Holy Prophet PBUH said:

"Perform Hajj and Umrah consecutively, for they remove poverty and sin as hollers remove impurity from iron"

Through this beautiful Hadith we can clearly understands that performance of Umrah is a source of removal of poverty. Removal of poverty is another benefit of Umrah that we can collect by fulfilling the Sunnah of Prophet PBUH. Allah SWT benefits the pilgrims with wealth as they spend their money just to seek forgiveness and to please their Lord. According to Muslim Jurist the person who is financially and physically able it is compulsory for them to make at least one Umrah in their life either with or before Hajj or at any other time in the year. Hazrat Ayesha RA said:

"Whoever greeneries his home only for the obstinacy of Hajj or Umrah and dies, nothing will be obtainable to him nor will he have any liability on the day of Reckoning and it will be said to him, enter into Jannah"

6. Reward equivalent to Jihad:

Jihad is no doubt one of the noblest acts in Islam and not everyone gets a chance to participate in it. The reward of Jihad is martyrdom as it is the act of devotion and great love. In this modern time there is no actively Jihad in which Muslims can take part but the performance of Umrah will earn you a reward equivalent to Jihad. Allah's Messenger said:

The combatant in the foundation of Allah, the pilgrim and the one who is performing Umrah are all the provision of Allah. He called them and they answer back and they will ask of His abdications and He will give it to them."

On another event He PBUH said:

"Jihad of the elderly, the young, the weak and the women is Hajj and Umrah."

The beautiful Hadith teaches us that the people who are not strong enough got a multiple amount of reward for performing Umrah.

19 Virtues of Zakat according to Islam ~ Hi readers! In several previous articles, I have explained some important things about Zakat, such as the definition of Zakat, Zakat for gold, silver, treasures, Zakat al-Fitr, and so on. As Muslims, we must know that. Why? I will say it again because Zakat is one of the obligatory rituals for Muslims who have met several conditions to do it.

And, in this article I will explain the nineteen virtues of Zakat according to Islam.

Virtues of Zakat

As for the nineteen virtues of Zakat according to Islam, what I mean is as follows:

One: The Nature of the Heaven-dwellers.

What is meant that paying Zakat is the nature of the people who will enter Heaven is that people who pay Zakat will get a very large reward from Allah. As Muslims, we must already know that one of the ways Allah rewards someone is by giving him permission to enter Heaven.

We can find this explanation in the Quran below:

إِنَّ الْمُتَّقِينَ فِي جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ () آخِذِينَ مَا آتَاهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ () كَانُوا قَلِيلًا مِّنَ اللَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ () وَبِالْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ () وَفِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ حَقٌّ لِّلسَّائِلِ وَالْمَحْرُومِ
"Surely those who are righteous are in gardens (jannah) and in the springs, taking what is given to them by their Rabb. Indeed, they were in the world before that people who did good. They sleep very little at night, and at the end of the night they ask forgiveness (of Allah). And in their property there is a right for the poor who ask and the poor who do not receive a share. " (Adz-Dzariyat: 15-19).
Two: Obtaining Allah's Grace.

Paying Zakat is one of the rituals that are not only related to bodily movements, such as prayer and fasting. Zakat is a ritual related to gestures, sincerity, and wealth. That's why only those who truly believe in Allah are able to do it. That's why people who pay Zakat will receive mercy from Allah.

We can find this explanation in the Quran below;

وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتُ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ يَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ وَيُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَيُطِيعُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ سَيَرْحَمُهُمُ اللَّهُ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ
"And those who believe, male and female, some of them (are) helping others. They command (do) the ma'ruf, prevent those who are evil, establish prayers, pay zakat, and they obey Allah and His Messenger. They will be given mercy by Allah. " (At-Taubah: 71).
Three: Fertilize Zakat.

What is meant by Zakat will fertilize Zakat assets is that someone who pays zakat will not experience a loss. Allah will give the person more wealth.

We can find this explanation in the Quran below:

يَمْحَقُ اللَّهُ الرِّبَا وَيُرْبِي الصَّدَقَاتِ
"Allah destroys usury and fertilizes alms." (Al-Baqarah: 276).
Four: Given Shade from the Heat of the Last Day.

The point is, that people who pay Zakat will receive protection from Allah on the Day of Judgment. We can find this explanation in the hadith below;

قالَ رسُولُ اللَّه صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : سَبْعَةٌ يُظِلُّهُمُ اللَّهُ في ظِلِّهِ يَوْمَ لا ظِلَّ إلَّا ظِلُّهُ: إِمامٌ عادِلٌ، وشابٌّ نَشَأَ فِي عِبَادَةِ اللَّه تَعالى، وَرَجُلٌ قَلْبُهُ مُعَلَّقٌ فِيْ المَسَاجِدِ، وَرَجُلانِ تَحَابَّا في اللَّه: اجتَمَعا عَلَيهِ، وتَفَرَّقَا عَلَيهِ، وَرَجُلٌ دَعَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ ذَاتُ مَنْصِبٍ، وَجَمَالٍ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي أَخافُ اللَّه، ورَجُلٌ تَصَدَّقَ بِصَدَقَةٍ فأَخْفَاها، حتَّى لا تَعْلَمَ شِمالُهُ مَا تُنْفِقُ يَمِينهُ، ورَجُلٌ ذَكَرَ اللَّه خالِيًا فَفَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ
The Messenger of Allah (Prophet Muhammad) sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said, "The seven groups that will be shaded by Allah under His auspices on a day that has no shade except His: a just leader, a young man who grows up in the obedience of Allah, someone whose heart always longs for mosques (to perform worship), two people who love each other because of Allah (they both meet and separate because of Allah), a man who is invited by a beautiful and honorable woman to commit adultery but he said , "Verily, I fear Allah.", Someone who gives charity and keeps it a secret so that his left hand does not know what his right hand has given him, someone who remembers Allah in a lonely state and his eyes shed tears (crying). "
Five: Opening the Doors of Sustenance.

The point is that Zakat or paying Zakat can be the cause of opening the doors of sustenance. In other words, paying Zakat will not reduce one's assets.

We can find this explanation in the hadith below:

قالَ رسُولُ اللَّه صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : مَا نَقَصَتْ صَدَقَةٌ مِنْ مَالٍ
The Messenger of Allah (Prophet Muhammad) sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said, "Alms (or Zakat) will not reduce wealth."
Six: Because Kindness Declines.

Zakat is the cause of various goodnesses to fall, and refusing to pay zakat is the cause of the obstruction of various kinds of goodness.

... وَلَمْ يَمْنَعُوْا زَكَاةَ أَمْوَالِهِمْ إِلَّا مُنِعُوْا القَطْرَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَلَوْلَا الْبَهَائِمُ لَمْ يُمْطَرُوْا ...
... Not a people withhold zakat on their property but they are prevented from getting rain from the sky. If it weren't for livestock, they wouldn't get rain ...
Seven: Eliminating Mistakes.

🌻setting the right niyyah
-  intentions are important in doing everything. As Prophet Muhammad ummat, there is a specialty in niyyah. because we can get pahala when we intend to do a good action even though the action does not occur yet.

🌻Applying the right 'amal
- As a servant to Almighty Allah SWT, we have to back to our nature and purpose of creation. Therefore, we should not arrogant towards God, we should worship him as he commands and we should forbid what it's forbidden.

🌻Internalising the Ihsan
- from Ibadah, we learn about Ihsan toward Allah. Therefore, we can practice Ihsan towards human beings. As clearly stated in Hadith Gabriel (readers can check it in another blog about Hadith Gabriel)

What is Ibadah or worship?

Ibadah means the expression of abasement, the highest of humility and homage before God. As to its importance, it is enough to state that worship is the purpose behind the creation of all beings and the mission of prophets. (from Al-Islam.org). As Allah SWT said;

وَ ما خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَ الإِْنْسَ إِلاَّ لِيَعْبُدُونِ

"I did not create the jinn and humans except that they may worship Me."

Why we need to worship God?

1. Greatness of God

2. Feelings od dependence

3. Awareness of blessings

4. Human nature (fitrah)

The positive values from Ibadah are

1. Setting the right niyyah (intentions) - intentions are important in doing everything. As Prophet Muhammad ummat, there is a specialty in niyyah. because we can get pahala when we intend to do a good action even though the action does not occur yet.

"From the Commander of the Faithful Abu Hafsah, Umar bin Al-Khattab RA, he said:" I heard the Prophet SAW said: "All deeds depend on his intention, and everyone only gets what he intended. So whoever migrates to Allah and His Messenger, then his migration is to Allah and His Messenger. Whoever migrates because of the pleasures of the world or because of a woman he is going to marry, then his migration is to what he intended. " (Reported by Bukhari and Muslim)

2. Applying the right 'amal (practices) - As a servant to Almighty Allah SWT, we have to back to our nature and purpose of creation. Therefore, we should not arrogant towards God, we should worship him as he commands and we should forbid what it's forbidden.

Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find written [i.e., described] in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel, who enjoins upon them what is right and prohibits them from what is wrong and makes lawful for them what is good and forbids them from what is evil and relieves them of their burden1 and the shackles which were upon them.2 So they who have believed in him, honored him, supported him, and followed the light which was sent down with him - it is those who will be successful.

3. Internalising the Ihsan (positive virtues) - from Ibadah, we learn about Ihsan toward Allah. Therefore, we can practice Ihsan towards human beings. As clearly stated in Hadith Gabriel (readers can check it in another blog about Hadith Gabriel)

Rasulullah s.a.w said which means: "Worship Allah s.w.t as if you see Him. If you cannot, (remember) Allah s.w.t sees you. Count yourself among those who are about to die and protect yourself from those who are persecuted, because indeed his prayer is accepted by Allah s.w.t. " (Narrated by Abu Na'im from Zaid bin Arqam).

What is Ibadah or worship? Ibadah means the expression of abasement, the highest of humility and homage before God. As to its importance, it is enough to state that worship is the purpose behind the creation of all beings and the mission of prophets. (from Al-Islam.org).

Learning Islam | The Six Pillars of Iman

# data[].attributes.body
- Akhlaq (Arabic: أخلاق‎) is the practice of virtue, morality and manners in Islamic theology and falsafah (philosophy).
- the plural form of khuluq, refers to innate disposition or character and, by extension in Muslim thought, to ethics. In the Qur’an the term is used to refer to Prophet Muhammad’s exemplary ethical character (68:4).
- The Qur’an also emphasises the significance of ethically guided action as the underpinning for a committed Muslim life.
- Qur’anic ethics emphasise in particular the dignity of the human being, accountability, justice, care and compassion, stewardship of society and the environment, and the obligation to family life and values.

- Ihsan (Arabic: إحسان‎ ʾiḥsān, also romanized ehsan), is an Arabic term meaning "beautification", "perfection" or "excellence" (Arabic: husn, meaning: beauty). It is a matter of taking one's inner faith (iman) and showing it in both deed and action, a sense of social responsibility borne from religious convictions.

- Islamic eschatology is the aspect of Islamic theology incorporating the afterlife and the end of the world, with special emphasis in the Quran on the inevitability of resurrection, the final judgment, and the eternal division of the righteous and the wicked, which take place on the Day of Resurrection.

1) Belief in the existence and unicity of Allah
- To believe in Allah is to believe that there is only one God worthy of worship, with no partner, or son. This concept is known as Tawheed. Also, it is to completely believe in the way he is described in the Quran, Sunnah and in his 99 names.

Allah clearly explains Tawheed in the Holy Qur’an as He says in Surah Ikhlas:

“قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ ، اللَّهُ الصَّمَدُ ، لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ”

“Say, He is Allah, [who is] One, Allah, the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born, Nor is there to Him any equivalent.”

2) Belief in the existence of Angels
- They were created from light and were created before humans for the purpose of worshipping Allah.
- Angels do not sleep, eat or suffer from illnesses. It is crucial to believe in the angels, as they keep a record of our deeds.

Allah clearly confirmed the importance of this pillar in the Holy Qur’an as He says in Surah An-Nisa:

“يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ آمِنُواْ بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَالْكِتَابِ الَّذِي نَزَّلَ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ وَالْكِتَابِ الَّذِيَ أَنزَلَ مِن قَبْلُ وَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلالاً بَعِيدًا”

“O you who have believed, believe in Allah and His Messenger and the Book that He sent down upon His Messenger and the Scripture which He sent down before. And whoever disbelieves in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, and the Last Day has certainly gone far astray.”

3) Belief in the books of Allah
- Allah revealed books to his messengers as a form of guidance and proof for mankind.
- Among these books, is the Quran, which was revealed to Prophet Muhammad.

Allah has guaranteed the protection of the Quran from any distortion or corruption and clearly mentioned that in the Holy Qur’an as He says in Surah Al-Hijr:

“إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ”

“Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur’an and indeed, We will be its guardian.”

4) Belief in Allah’s messengers and that Muhammad is the last of them
- Most of the messengers of Allah were sent to a specific nation except Prophet Muhammad, who was sent to guide all of mankind
- duty of Muslims to send salaams (Peace and Blessings of Allah) when mentioning the names of any of the Prophets.

Allah clearly mentioned that he sent the messengers in the Holy Qur’an as He says in Surah An-Nahl:

“وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولاً أَنِ اعْبُدُواْ اللَّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُواْ الطَّاغُوتَ فَمِنْهُم مَّنْ هَدَى اللَّهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضَّلالَةُ فَسِيرُواْ فِي الأَرْضِ فَانظُرُواْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ”

And We certainly sent into every nation a messenger, [saying], “Worship Allah and avoid Taghut.” And among them were those whom Allah guided, and among them were those upon whom error was [deservedly] decreed. So proceed through the earth and observe how was the end of the deniers.

5) Belief in the Day of Judgment
- belief in the day of akhirah and Muslims attest to the truth of everything Allah or his messenger, sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said about death.

- Allah has set a certain period for the whole universe, whose end will be the final hour. During the final hour, humans will be questioned about their deeds in this world.

Allah described justice of the judgment day in the Holy Qur’an as He says in Surah Al-Anbya:

“وَنَضَعُ الْمَوَازِينَ الْقِسْطَ لِيَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَلا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْئًا وَإِن كَانَ مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنْ خَرْدَلٍ أَتَيْنَا بِهَا وَكَفَى بِنَا حَاسِبِينَ”

“And We place the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so no soul will be treated unjustly at all. And if there is [even] the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it forth. And sufficient are We as accountant.”

6) Belief in the Qadhaa’ & Qadr (Doom & Divine Decree)
- Doom (Qadhaa’) is the general decree of Allah that every human shall die
- divine decree (Qadr) is a particular decree of Allah or the execution of Qadhaa’, that a certain person is to die at a particular time and place

Moreover, The belief in Divine Predestination includes belief in four things:

1. Allah is well acquainted with everything taking place, and His Knowledge encompasses everything.

2. Allah has pre-assigned portions of everything in the preserved tablet.

3. Nothing takes place in the heavens or on the earth without the will of Allah and his wish. Whatever Allah wills, takes place and whatever he does not, will do not take place.

4. Allah is the creator of all things. There is no other creator besides him.

1) Recitation of al-Syahadah
- declaration of faith
-The belief that "There is no god but God, and Muhammad is the Messenger of God" is central to Islam
- One becomes a Muslim by reciting this phrase with conviction
- reciting it three times in front of witnesses is a requirement of becoming a Muslim.

2) Prayer (salat)
- five times a day: at dawn, noon, mid-afternoon, sunset, and after dark.
- recitation of the opening chapter (sura) of the Qur'an, and is sometimes performed on a small rug or mat used expressly for this purpose
- pray individually at any location (fig. 1) or together in a mosque, where a leader in prayer (imam) guides the congregation.

3) Alms (zakat)
- Muslims donate a fixed portion of their income to community members in need
- obligatory donation of a portion of a Muslim’s surplus wealth
- Islamic charities encourage donors to use their services to relieve suffering and to help refugees, victims of environmental disasters, the urban poor and those in conflict zones and in recent years relief has been provided in Gaza, Syria, Yemen and Iraq

4) Fasting (sawm)
- Muslims are expected to fast during Ramadan – the ninth month in the Islamic calendar.
- abstain from food and drink, sexual activity and smoking, breaking the fast with a meal after sunset
- elderly, ill, pregnant or breast-feeding are exempt, and children are not required to participate.
- During Ramadan they share the hunger and thirst of the needy as a reminder of the religious duty to help those less fortunate.

5) Pilgrimage (hajj)
- Every Muslim whose health and finances permit it must make at least one visit to the holy city of Mecca, in present-day Saudi Arabia
- Since the time of the Prophet Muhammad, believers from all over the world have gathered around the Ka'ba in Mecca on the eighth and twelfth days of the final month of the Islamic calendar.
