“Allah” : Arabic proper noun; name for God, it refers
to the One and Only, the Unique Creator, Lord
Sustainer of the Universe, Who Alone is God – there is
none besides Allah.

No equivalent translation in non-Semitic language.



“Muhammad s.a.a.w.” : Arabic name meaning
“the Praised One”; he is the Chosen, Unlettered
Prophet, the servant and Messenger of Allah,
the Awaited Seal of Prophethood after whom
there will be no more prophet sent.


“Tell me about Islam” Islam is built upon five
things:
Bear witness that there is
none deserving of worship
except Allah, and that
Muhammad is His servant
and Messenger.


Islam is built upon five
“Tell me about Islam” things:
And to establish Swolah
(the obligatory five daily
worship or specific
devotion).


And to pay the Zakah
(obligatory tax upon the
wealth).


And to make pilgrimage
(Hajj) to the House (Ka’ba
in Makkah) if you are able.


“Tell me about Islam” Islam is built upon five
things:
And to observe fasting
daily in the month of
Ramadhan.


.....“Tell me about iiman (Belief) iiman is that you:
(Faith/Belief)” Solemnly believe in Allah;
His angels;
His Books,
His Messengers;
In the Afterlife;
In the Decree, the good &
bad, all comes from (the
eternal knowledge of)
Allah;


........ “ Tell me about ‘Al- “Al-Ihsan” (excellence) is:
Ihsan’- (the Best or
Righteous conduct or ... That you serve (worship)
Excellence)” Allah as though you see
Him, but if you do not see
Him, He (Allah) sees you.”


IIMAN ‘AMAL IHSAN
[Islam]
Belief Submission Best or
Faith Obedience Righteous
Conviction Practice Conduct
Faith without obedience is meaningless; and obedience without Faith is
mere rituals and may even lead to hypocrisy.
Together, Faith and Obedience must lead to Righteousness with IHSAN
which essentially focus in our intention to sincerely serve Allah s.w.t.
Thus, in these three aspects can one be said to be true in his submission
to the Will of Allah (as Muslim).

THE FIRST ASPECT REQUIRED IN THE ATTESTATION TO
THE ABSOLUTE ONENESS OF ALLAH (TAU HEED)


 IIMAN is “Belief or Faith” to something beyond sense
perception, termed as “ - al-ghayb” meaning “the
unseen”.
 It is derived from the root word “ ” which also means
“safety, peace, security, protection”
 It denote: “certainty of the ultimate truth”, adherence to it
instils sense of “security in him” from doubts, uncertainty,
restlessness etc.


 Yet from Islamic perspective “iiman” cannot be by mere blind
acceptance devoid of proof or substantiation i.e. Believe or
faith must be with knowledge.


 Yet from Islamic perspective “iiman” cannot be by mere blind
acceptance devoid of proof or substantiation i.e. Must be with
knowledge.

"And do not follow (pursue) anything of which thou
hast no knowledge: verily (thy) hearing and sight
and heart - all of them - will be called to account
for it (on Judgement Day).“
(Q: Bani Israil : 17 :36)


 Yet from Islamic perspective “iiman” cannot be by mere
blind acceptance devoid of proof or substantiation i.e.
Must be with knowledge.
 Three sources for knowledge:

[1] Five sensory perceptions - ;

[2] Reasoning - ;

[3] True report - ;


(The Detailed Belief) “Al-iiman is that you:

 Solemnly believe in Allah;
 His angels;
 His Books,
 His Messengers;
 In the Afterlife;
 In the Decree, the good & bad, all comes
from (the eternal knowledge of) Allah
Most Exalted.”

THE FIFTH ARTICLE OF FAITH IN ACKNOWLEDGING
THE ABSOLUTE ONENESS OF ALLAH (TAUHEED)


“Behold thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a
vicegerent on earth." They said "Wilt thou place therein one
who will make mischief therein and shed blood? Whilst we
do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy (name)?"

He (Allah) said: "I know what ye know not."

(Qur’an: Surah al-Baqarah: 2: 30)


Allah wishes to honour mankind over the Angels,
despite the fact that mankind may also be capable of
mischief and shedding blood. Whereas the angels are
pure and in constant devotion to Allah, and yet it is
mankind that was chosen.


 Does it therefore meant that all of mankind would
deserve the honour in perpetuity (forever)?

Justice would demand that there should be some
basis or reason for their deserving it.


“ It is We who have placed you with authority on earth, and
provided you therein with means for the fulfilment of your
life: small are the thanks that ye give!
It is We who created you and gave you shape; then We
bade the angels prostrate to Adam, and they prostrated, not
so Iblis; he refused to be of those who bow down.”

(Qur’an: Surah al-A’raf: 7: 10-11)


“(Allah) said: "what prevented thee from bowing down
when I commanded thee?" He (Iblis) said: "I am better than
he: thou didst create me from fire, and him from clay."

(Allah) said: "Get thee down from this: it is not for thee to
be arrogant here: get out, for thou art of the meanest (of
creatures).”



“He (Iblis) said: "Give me respite till the day they
are raised up.“
(Allah) said: "Be thou amongst those who have
respite.”


“He (Iblis) said: "Because thou hast thrown me out of the
Way, lo! I will lie in wait for them on Thy straight Way.
Then will I assault them from before them and behind
them, from their right and their left: nor wilt Thou find, in
most of them, gratitude (for Thy mercies).

(Allah) said: "Get out from this, disgraced and expelled. If
any of them follow thee Hell will I fill with you all.”


 Mankind’s test began when Iblis , after being
accursed by Allah because of his arrogance and
disobedience, requested to be given the opportunity to
tempt mankind. He was in fact challenging Allah’s Justice
& Wisdom.

DU’A (SUPPLICATION) TAUGHT BY IMAM HABIB ‘ABDULLAH ALHADDAD
IN KITAB “ “ based on As-SUNNAH.

Allah SWT has given this Du’a , also as general guideline:

“O my Lord (Allah)! I seek refuge in You from the (evil)
whispering of satan, and I seek refuge in You from their
ever being present with me.”

MOST COMPASSIONATE,
MOST MERCIFUL.

DU’A
“O Allah! You have place upon us an enemy who can see our
privacy and our shortcomings, whereas he and his kind spy upon
us from places which we are unable to see them.

O Allah! Disappoint their hopes towards us, just as You have made
them disappointed in hoping to get Your Mercy (Blessings).

Make them despair (in attaining their plans) towards us , just as
You made them despair from seeking Your Forgiveness.

Keep them away (distance) from us, just as You made them to be
far-away (distance) from Your Paradise.

Verily, You (O Allah) is Most Powerful over everything .
Aamiin

 His arrogance and enmity towards Adam a.s. and all
of mankind, became a cause, for which Allah puts us all,
mankind as well as the jinn, to a test on this temporary
life on earth.

Reward and punishment, surely would be for
those who deserves – it is not granted arbitrarily.


“Then did Satan make them slip from the (Garden) and get
them out of the state (of felicity) in which they had been. We
said: "Get ye down all (ye people) with enmity between
yourselves. On earth will be your dwelling place and your
means of livelihood for a time."



“Then learnt Adam from his Lord words of inspiration and
his Lord turned toward him; for He is Oft-Returning Most
Merciful.
We said: "Get ye down all from here; and if, as is sure,
there comes to you guidance from Me, whosoever follows
My guidance on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve .
But those who reject Faith and belie Our Signs, they shall
be Companions of the Fire; they shall abide therein."
(Qur’an: Surah al-Baqarah 2: 37-39)


“ Hallowed be He (Allah) in whose hand all dominion rests,
since He has the power to will anything: He Who created
death as well as life, so that He might put you to a test [and
thus show] which of you is best in conduct, and [make you
realize that] He (Allah) alone is almighty, truly forgiving.”

(Qur’an: Surah al-Mulk: 67: 1-2)


“Whoever is guided is only guided for [the benefit of] his
soul. And whoever errs only errs against it. And no bearer
of burdens will bear the burden of another. And never
would We punish until We sent a messenger.”
(Qur’an: al-Isra’: 17: 15)


AS FOUND IN THE OLD TESTAMENT

“ The soul that sinneth it shall die. The son shall
not bear the iniquity (sins) of the father, neither
shall the father bear the iniquity (sins) of the son,
the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon
him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be
upon him… ”
(Ezekiel 18: 20)


AS FOUND IN THE OLD TESTAMENT

“… But the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath

committed, and keep all my statutes and do that which is

lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.”

(Ezekiel 18 : 21)

(Note similarity with the Islamic concept of ‘TAUBAH’ here :
consistent with Islam. Unfortunately later Christian Church
leaders have replaced this with their concept of the ‘original sin’ ,
‘blood redemption’ and ‘vicarious atonement’.)


HOW SHALL MAN BE SAVED IN HEREAFTER ?

AS FOUND IN THE GOSPEL - NEW TESTAMENT RECORD:

“Jesus says : ‘Not everyone who says to me ‘Lord,
Lord’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he
who does the will of my Father who is in heaven” *
(Matthew 7 : 21 )
( * Islam : means “submission of God’s will” )


“ Say: ‘O my servants who have transgressed against their
own souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah
forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Turn ye to your Lord (in repentance) and bow to His [Will],
before the Penalty comes on you: After that ye shall not be
helped.”

(Qur’an: Surah az-Zumar: 39: 53-54)


“O ye who believe! enter into Islam whole-heartedly (fully);
and follow not the footsteps of the Evil One; for he is to you
an avowed enemy.”



“O ye who believe! (Be conscious of and ) Fear Allah and let
every soul look to what (provision) he has sent forth for the
morrow.
Yea, (be conscious of and) fear Allah: for Allah is well-
acquainted with (all) that ye do. And be ye not like those who
forgot Allah; and He made them forget their own souls! such
are the rebellious transgressors! Not equal are the Companions
of the Fire and the Companions of the Garden: it is the
Companions of the Garden, that will achieve Felicity.”
(Qur’an: Surah al-Hashr: 59: 18-20)


Sceptics may argue: “How can someone that has died,
rotted and dispersed like dust can be resurrected back
again?”

– But, they conveniently forget about how they were
first created ... In fact seemingly from nothing ... how
was it possible then?


“ Was he not a drop of fluid which gushed forth? Then he
became a clot; then Allah shaped and fashioned, and made
of him a pair, the male and female? Is not He (Who does so)
able to bring the dead to life?”

(Qur’an: Surah al-Qiyamah: 75: 37-40)


“ And he coineth Us a similitude and hath forgotten the fact
of his creation saying: ‘Who shall revive these bones when
they have rotted away?’ Say: ‘He (Allah) will revive them,
Who produced them at the first (instance), for He is Knower
of every creation.”

(Qur’an: Surah Ya-Seen: 36: 78-79)


“ He (Allah) it is Who produces creation (in the first instance),
then reproduced it, and it is easier for Him (to raise the
dead). His, is the sublime similitude in the heavens and in the
earth, He is the Mighty, the Wise.”

(Qur’an: Surah Rum: 30: 27)


 For us who already accept that our existence owes
itself to a Creator, belief in the resurrection is a
corollary to this present life.


 It is not difficult to accept the possibility of
resurrection since we are already convinced that our
existence is created by Allah – Who also has informed
us of what is to come after death.


 Those who are doubtful of it should first seek to
explain how their present existence came about, in the
first place.

 Until then, it is beyond their capacity to theorise
about what will happen after their death.


“The example of [this] worldly life is but like rain which We
have sent down from the sky that the plants of the earth
absorb - [those] from which men and livestock eat - until,
when the earth has taken on its adornment and is beautified
and its people suppose that they have capability over it, there
comes to it Our command by night or by day, and We make it
as a harvest, as if it had not flourished yesterday . Thus do We
explain in detail the signs for a people who give thought.”
(Qur’an: Yunus: 10: 24)


“Halia ini tanam-tanaman,
Ke barat juga akan rebahnya,

Dunia ini pinjam-pinjaman,
Ke akhirat juga akan sudahnya”
TRANSLATION IN ENGLISH

“Ginger is a plant that grows in clumps,
Towards the west it’s shoot will turn,

Life in this world is but on borrowed times,
For the Hereafter is where all must eternally
return”

"But seek, with the (wealth) which Allah has bestowed
on thee, the Home of the Hereafter, nor forget thy
portion in this world: but do thou good, as Allah has
been good to thee, and seek not (occasions for)
mischief in the land: for Allah loves not those who do
mischief."
(Qur’an: Qasas: 28: 77)


“Let not the strutting about of the Unbelievers through the
land deceive thee: Little is it for enjoyment; their ultimate
abode is Hell: what an evil bed (to lie on)!”
(Qur’an: Aali ‘Imran: 3: 196-197)


“On the other hand, for those who (are conscious and) fear their
Lord, are Gardens with rivers flowing beneath: therein are they to
dwell (for ever) a gift,― from the presence of Allah; and that which is
in the presence of Allah is the best (bliss) for the righteous.”

(Qur’an: Aali ‘Imran: 3: 198)

“And whatever good ye do (be sure) Allah knows it. And take a
provision (with you) for the journey, but the best of provisions is
Taqwa : right conduct. So (have Taqwa : be conscious and) fear

“Work for your worldly needs, as though you are going
to live forever, and strive (also to prepare) for your Hereafter,
as though you are going to die tomorrow.”
(Hadith reported by Baihaqy)


“What I have forbidden to you, avoid; what I have ordered you
[to do], do as much of it as you can. It was only their excessive
questioning and their disagreeing with their Prophets that
destroyed those who came before you.”

(Hadith reported by Bukhary and Muslim)


“Be conscious of Allah (TAQWA) wherever you may be, and
follow-up whatever misdeeds you may have committed (as
reparation) by doing (more) righteous deeds, (for these) shall
efface them (the negative effect of these misdeeds), and
interact with people in the best manner of disposition (i.e.
adopt a noble character (AKHLAQ HASSANAH) - towards
people).”

(Hadith reported by Tabarani from Abi Dzar)


“When a son of Adam (any person – male/female) dies, his
ability to do any more good deeds ceases (i.e. his ability to strive
for gaining merits [rewards] stops) – except for three things
(which shall continue adding rewards to his credit):
[1] charity in perpetuity (which continues to benefit people
and others),
[2] ‘ilm (knowledge he had taught to others) which continues
to be beneficial (benefited),
[3] a righteous child who continues to make Du’a (pray) for
him.”
(Hadith reported by Muslim, Ahmad, Abu Dawud )


“The dead (Muslim) in the grave is like one drowning and in need
of help. He is waiting for the prayer (Du’a) from his father, his
mother, his children and his trusted closed friends. When a prayer
(Du’a) reaches him, this is more beloved to him than the whole
world and what is in it. Verily Allah Most Esteemed and Glorious,
when granting the prayer (Du’a) from those living to the people of
the grave, it is as big as mountains. And know that amongst the
gifts from those alive given to those who have died are through
ISTIGHFAR (asking Allah’s forgiveness for them) and SADAQAH
(deeds of charity) made upon their names.”
(Hadith reported by Darimiy)


“Take a provision for the journey, and the
best of provision is Taqwa”

is fully aware of all that you do; and be not like those
who are oblivious of Allah, and whom He therefore

“Not equal are those who are destined for the fire

denying the truth seem to be able to do as they please on
earth: it is [but] a brief enjoyment, with hell thereafter as

who remain conscious of their Sustainer shall have gardens
through which running waters flow, therein to abide: a
ready welcome from Allah. And that which is with Allah is
best for the truly virtuous.”

“Our Lord! any whom thou dost admit to the Fire Truly
thou covers with shame, and never will wrong-doers find

“Our Lord! we have heard the call of one calling (us) to

“Our Lord! forgive us our sins blot out from us our
iniquities (sins), and take to Thyself our souls in the

"Our Lord! Grant us what Thou didst promise unto us
(who believe) through Thy Messengers, and save us from
shame on the Day of Judgment: for thou never breaks

Thy promise."


“And let me not be in disgrace on the Day when (men) will
be raised up― The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons
will avail, "But only he (will prosper) that brings to Allah a
sound heart;”


“Our Lord! Give us good in this world and good in the
Hereafter and save us from the torment of the fire!"


“(May) Allah grant His Reward upon Muhammad,
salutations of Allah and Peace be upon him and his family,
in accordance with what he deserves (in Allah’s knowledge
& estimation).”


And salutations of Allah and Peace be upon our Leader
Muhammad, and upon His household and Companions .


“And all the Praises is for Allah,
Lord Sustainer of all the worlds.”
