B247 What is Islam

Description

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

“And I (Allah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone). I seek not any provision from them (i.e. provision for themselves or for My creatures) nor do I ask that they should feed Me (i.e. feed themselves or My creatures). Verily, Allah is the All-Provider, Owner of Power, and the Most Strong. And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a portion of torment like to the evil portion of torment (which came for) their likes (of old); so let them not ask Me to hasten on! Then woe to those who disbelieve (in Allah and His Oneness Islamic Monotheism) from their Day which they have been promised (for their punishment).” (Surah Adh-Dhdriyat, 51: 56-60)

Islam is the religion that Allah has chosen for mankind. It is a way of life that affects every aspect of man’s life, the social, the political, the economic, etc. Islam has a solution to every problem regardless of its nature and gravity. It is a Divine message, which Allah chose Muhammad (S) to convey to mankind. Islam considers all forms of life as sacred.
