Introduction
to
Islam
 Islam (literally)
Islam comes from an Arabic root word which means
• "peace"
• "submission”
• “to hand-over”
• The same Arabic root word gives us “asSalaam-u-
alaykum," ("Peace be with you"), the universal Muslim
greeting.

Introduction to
Religion
 The Etymology
of Religion
The term religion is derived from
the Latin religio that originally
refers to the human fear of God
or other divine beings.
Its precise Latin etymology is
unclear; Cicero traces it to
relegere, which refers to
 Legal definition of Religion

In comprehensive terms, the term ‘Religion’

refers to
‘a way of life based upon obedience
to laws of some authority, and a
system of rewards and punishments
according to those laws’.
 In Arabic…
The word Religion means “Deen”,
which denotes

1. “Full submission” as when they say ‫ ))دان للحاكم‬he

submitted himself to the ruler.
2. “The authority and power of domination. (‫َكَٰذِلَك ِكْدَنا‬
‫َّل‬ ‫َأ‬ ‫اَّل‬ ‫ْل‬ ‫َأ‬ ‫ْأ‬
‫ال‬
‫َي َء ُه‬‫ا‬ ‫َش‬ ‫ن‬ ‫ا‬ ‫ي‬ ‫ي‬
‫ُه ِف ِد ِن َم ِلِك ِإ‬‫َخا‬ ‫َذ‬ ‫ُخ‬ ‫)”ِلُيوُس َف ۖ َم ا َكاَن ِلَي‬
3. “The retribution” ‫َم ـاِلِك َيْو ِم الِّديِن‬
 Religion according to Qur’an
The Holy Qur’an says,
‫ِا َّن ال ِّد ْي َن ِع ْن َد الل ِہ ا ْلِا ْس َلا ُم‬
-----------------------------------

‫َو َم ن َيْبَتِغ َغْيَر ٱِإْلْس َلٰـِم ِدي ًۭنا َف َلن ُيْق َبَل ِم ْنُه َو ُه َو ِف ى ٱْلَٔـاِخ‬
‫ي‬
‫ِر َن‬ ‫ِس‬ ‫َخٰـ‬‫ْل‬‫َر ِة ِم َن ٱ‬
And whoever desires other than Islam as religion –
never will it be accepted from him, and he, in the
Hereafter, will be among the losers.
 Why are there
Thousands of religions and
beliefs
throughout the world,
(The
Almighty
even
though the Creator is ONE
)

 ImaAn (ACCORDING TO HADITH)

‫ُث َّم َقا َل َيا ُم َح َّم ُد َما ا ْل ِإي َما ُن َقا َل َأ ْن ُت ْؤ ِم َن ِبال َّل ِه َو َم َلا ِئ َک ِت ِه َو ُک ُت ِب ِه‬

THEN HE ASKED “ O MUHAMMAD WHAT IS FAITH”? HE
‫) )صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم‬

SAID, “IT IS TO BELIEVE IN ALLAH, HIS ANGELS, HIS BOOKS,

HIS MESSENGERS (PEACE BE UPON THEM ALL), IN THE LAST
DAY AND IN PREDESTINATION OF GOOD AND EVIL.”
 ISLAM IN THE SIGHT OF
WESTERNERS
Islamic Conquests Are Infact Motivated By
Economic Interests (i.e To Get Booty Or Levy
Taxes).
Islamic Jihad Incites Muslims To Inflict Harm
Upon Others, By Exact This Is Terrorism.
The Punishments Set By Islamic Laws Are
Extremely Barbarous.
FIVE PILLARS OF
ISLAM shahadat

Declaration of faith

Kalema is the gateway to islam ,the arch- stone of
the faith .
 By affirming it and reciting it with sincerity and
conviction even a lifelong heathen or a polytheist
can become a muslim.
 Any one who repeats the confession
mechanically , without understanding, will not
gain recognition in the sight of ALLAH as a
muslim.
 It is therefore necessary to study it’s meaning
and implications carefully.
Declaration of faith
 Reciting This Confession , We Are Supposed
To Follow All Its Rules And Regulations , And
To Avoid What Allah Has Prohibited Us From.

 This Kalema Consists Of Two Parts . The First

Part
(‫)ال اله اال الله‬
Contains The Affirmation Of
The Oneness Of Allah.

This ‫ ال اله اال الله‬Is The Keystone Of Islam And The First And
Foremost Item In The Teachings Of All The Prophets .

The Second Part Of The Kalema Consists Of ‫محمد‬

‫الرسول الله‬
It Requires To Accept MUHAMMAD ( ‫ ) صلى الله عليه وسلم‬As An Apostle Of
ALLAH , And To Regard His Teachings And Guidance To Be The
Teachings And Guidance Of ALLAH .

 Imagination About Giving Up Namaz

We Should Imagine What Our End Is Going To Be, If We

Failed To Cultivate The Habit Of Offering The Namaz
Correctly And Regularly.

The Qur’an Says :

‫يوم يكشف عن ساق و يدعون الى السجود فال‬
‫ يستطيعون‬°
o ‫خاشعة ابصارهم ترهقم ذلة وقد كانوا يدعون‬
‫الى السجود وهم سالمون‬
A tradition of the prophet , ‫صلى الله عليه‬
‫ ) )وسلم‬reads :

“what separates a believer from

infidelity is simply the namaz ".
 zakat
• Zakat means : to purify, and exactly
we can purify our capitals or
earnings by paying particular
amount of zakat from it.

• A Muslim who is in possession of a

certain amount of wealth, or more,
Criteria of being alms obligatory
• An adult sane Muslim
• On property which is absolutely owned
• When wealth reaches Nisab.
• Purpose of business.
• Payment on loans given to others
• Shares, cash savings and pensions etc.
THE 8 BENEFICIARIES of ZAKAt (ASNAF)
 The Poor
 The Needy
 The Administration Of Zakat (Amil):
 The Sympathizers (Muallaf)
 To Freed Slaves (Riqab)
 Those Who Are In Debt (Gharimin)
 For The Cause Of Allah (Fi-sabilillah)
 Those Who Are Stranded During A
Journey (Travellers) (Ibnu Sabil)
o Habitual Neglect Of Namaz And Failure
To Practise The Zakat Are, According To
The Qur’an, Not The Qualities Of A
Muslim.
o The Qur’an Reads:
o
“(‫وأقيموا الصلوة وال تكونوا من‬
‫”)المشركين‬
o (“Establish
Regular Prayer And Be Not
Ye Among Infidels.”)
o
“(‫يوتون‬ ‫وويل للمشركين الذين ال‬
 ‫(مثل الذين ينفقون أموالهم فى سبيل‬
‫الله كمثل حبة أنبتت سبع سنابل فى كل‬
‫سنبلة مائة حبة ه والله يضاعف لمن يشاء‬
(‫والله واسع عليم‬
" (The parable of those who spend their
substance in the way of ‫ الله‬, is that of a grain of
corn : it groweth seven ears and each ear hath a
hundred grains, ‫ الله‬multiplies for whom he
pleases; and ‫ الله‬is ample-giving and he
A Tradition Of The Holy
Prophet Reads:
‫صلى الله عليه وسلم‬

“I Can Swear No One

Will Become Poor
Because Of Expending
In The Way Of ALLAH.”
Roza(fasting) AFTER BELIEF, NAMAZ AND ZAKAT, THE MOST IMPORTANT DUTY IN ISLAM IS ROZA (OR FASTING) .THE
QUR’AN SAYS:

(‫ياايهاالذين أمنوا كتب عليكم الصيام‬

OH THE BELIEVERS ! FASTING IS PRESCRIBED TO YOU AS IT WAS PRESCRIBED TO THOSE, BEFORE YOU; THAT YOU MAY
(LEARN) SELF-RESTRAINT.
