Proper aqeedah is the way of liberation in the hereafter
Introduction:Allah has sent the human race into the world as Ashraful Makhlukat, the best creature of creation. Man presents proof of his superiority based on aqeedah or belief. It is the foundation on which man determines the course of his overall life. The whole life of a person whose aqeedah or faith is not pure is in vain. Because the key to human life is its aqeedah or belief; In the light of which man performs all his deeds. It is an incomparable force on which he does not hesitate to spend his life. It is almost impossible to build a building without a foundation; Similarly, it is impossible to claim to be a Muslim without pure Aqeedah. If every word and deed does not come out of pure aqeedah or belief, then it is not acceptable to Allah. At the root of all the misguidance of mankind is the deviation from its basic aqeedah. So the correct aqeedah is the only way to salvation in the hereafter. Therefore it is essential to know the matter with utmost importance.
The identity of Aqeedah
Literally meaning: The word عقيدة (Aqeedah) is derived from the Arabic word عقدة (Uqbadatun). Which literally means - knot or binding. As described in the Qur'an عُقْدَةُ النِّكَاحِ meaning 'marriage bond' (Baqarah 2/236) .
Terminological meaning: In general, that firm belief is called aqeedah; On the basis of which man manages his life. And Islamic Aqeedah means to have firm belief in Allah's Rububiyyat, Uluhiyyat and Asma Was Shifat. His angels, the prophets and messengers, the books revealed to them, the Hereafter or the Hereafter, and the firm belief in the good and evil of Taqwadir.
The importance of maintaining proper aqeedah
(A) Aqeedah is the main pillar of the five pillars of Islam. It is narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (sm) said,
بُنِى الإِسْلاَمُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ شَهَادَةِ ْنْ لا laإِهَ إِإِلَُّا وُنَّهُ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُوْلُ اللهِ وَإِقَامِ الصَّلاَةِ وِيْتْمَِِْا
'Islam is founded on five pillars. 1- There is no true god but Allah and Muhammad (sm) to bear witness to the word of Allah's Messenger. 2- To establish salat. 3- Paying Zakat. 4- Performing Hajj and 5- Observing the fast of Ramazan '. [1]
Therefore, the main means of being based on Islam is Sahih Aqeedah; Which is the greatest and most powerful tool of liberation in the hereafter.
(B) Pure Aqeedah is the means of following the Qur'an:Allah has chosen Islam as the only religion for the human race and has revealed all the rules and regulations of Islam through revelation. How will man manage his entire life, what will be the aqeedah about Allah and His Messenger? Everything about it has been properly described in the Qur'an. There is no surah in the Qur'an which does not discuss Tawheed. So it can be said that, The whole Qur'an is Tawheed. Because the names and attributes of Allah have been discussed everywhere in the Qur'an and it has been instructed to worship one God without refraining from associating any person or thing with Him. Or it speaks of the reward of God's sincere monotheistic servants in this life and in the Hereafter, and of the punishment of His disobedient infidel polytheists. Or it speaks of God's help to the sincere followers of the previous prophets, and of God's wrath upon those who denied the prophets. For example, in the Holy Qur'an, the help and punishment of the people of Noah (AS), Hud (AS), Saleh (AS) and Ibrahim (AS) has been mentioned. Or it speaks of halal and haram, Which is one of the rights of Tauhid. Because the monotheistic servants of Allah will believe that what is halal in the Qur'an is halal and what is haram is haram. Will earn halal and will refrain from earning haraam at any cost. Therefore, it is possible to fully accept the Qur'an only through the practice of pure aqeedah.
(C) Pure Aqeedah is the only way to enter Islam: Allah has chosen Islam as the only religion for the human race. Such a religion is not acceptable to Allah. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning) : / 85) . And the only way to enter Islam is to get Aqeedah Sahih. Because the basic subject of Islam is Aqeedah. It is aqeedah or faith that leads people astray; Even expels from Islam. E.g.-
(1) For the sake of Aqeedah, a person forgets his Creator and worships an idol made by his own hands, considers him as the source of salvation in the Hereafter, and engages in a heinous conspiracy to kill him even if it is his own child. When Ibrahim (AS) took a stand against idolatry, he was thrown into the blazing fire by his father for plotting to assassinate him. By the special grace of Allah, the intense heat of the fire made him cool and comfortable. But those idols will not be of any use to them in the Hereafter; Rather, they will deny their worship. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): Never will they deny their worship and go against them. '(Maryam 19 / 61-62) . He said elsewhere,
Price Robertson - تازنا يازين اهم دربعين مينور بيع م نيثند الساععع م وحلم من ويندر مسأنحسم مكه اأن ل بسفك وكلم بسه مسأني - تعلم منات امم باع مين التزيس مكهن خاعضم
And on the day when We shall gather them all together, then We shall say to those who associate others (with Allah), Then I will separate them. Then their associates will say, "You did not worship us." GOD suffices as a witness between us and you. We must have been heedless of your worship ' (Yunus 10 / 26-29) . He said, And they will see the punishment. Alas! If only they had been guided ' (approximately 26/74) . He said elsewhere,
It government 1 - بحص بص المفد المله ويندا مسما ياضا شمه للص ويندا التقمون شدلااء
And on the day when He will say: Call upon My associates whom you considered (associates). Then they will call upon them, but they will not answer them. I will leave the ruins among them. And the criminals will see the fire. Then they will know for sure that they will fall into it and they will find no way out of it ' (Kahf 16 / 52-53) . He said elsewhere,
Type Remcodation show like Zahmhokh, the Amandho Imampharsh
And indeed you have come to me alone, as I created you the first time, and you have left behind what I bestowed on you. And I do not see your intercessors with you, whom you thought to be partners with you. Of course, your relationship has been severed. And what you used to think, you have lost ' (An'am 8/94) . He said elsewhere,
َّنَّكُمْ وَمَا تْعْبُدُوْنَ مِن ُُوِنِ ِِصَبُ جَهَنَّمَ ْنْتُمْ لَهَا وَارِدْوْن, لْْ كَنَ هَوُلاَ ِلْهَةً مَةًْه
'You and what you worship instead of Allah are fuel for Hell, and you will all enter it. If they had been gods, they would not have entered hell, all of them would have abided in it ' (Ambiya 21 / 96-99) .
(2) After the death of a parent or child due to aqeedah reasons, instead of burying him, they try to make him non-existent by burning him in fire. They think that if they do, the Creator will never be able to catch them. But in the sight of Allah all must be united. No one can escape. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
Lolation Asrading ..
And whoever turns away from My remembrance, his livelihood will be straitened, and I will raise him blind on the Day of Resurrection. He will say, O my Lord! Why did you raise me blind? But I was full of sight. He will say, "Thus did My revelations come to you, but you forgot them." In the same way you will be forgotten today ' (Taha 20 / 124-126) .
Elsewhere, he said: Hell is their abode. Whenever it fades away, I will increase the fire for them ' (Isra 16/96) .
(3) Due to aqeedah, a class of people believe in the existence of 'Wahdatul Ujud', that is, the Creator and the creation. That is, nothing exists except God; Creation is only the manifestation or form of God. In Deobandi Bujurgan, the spiritual guru of the religion, Haji Emdadullah Muhajir Makki, has given an example in his interpretation of 'Wahdatul Ujud' that 'the seed is Allah and the creation is the stem, root, twig, leaf, etc. In the beginning only seeds existed and the tree with twigs was hidden in the seeds. When the sapling became a big tree, the seed disappeared. The seed has now grown into a huge tree and has no existence outside of it '. So we are all part of God. Whatever we worship in the universe is the worship of Allah. God bless you!
Haji Emdadullah Muhajir Makki said that man is outwardly a slave and inwardly Haqq or Allah; Naujubillah. [2] He further said that it is shirk to differentiate between Abed and Ma'bud. [3] Ashraf Ali Thanvi declared faith in 'Wahdatul Ujud' as the perfection of faith. But Muhammad Ahsan goes on to say that faith in 'Wahdatul Ujud' depends on faith. [4] But Allah is the Creator of all things. Allah, the Exalted, says, There is no deity except Him. He is the Creator of all things; So worship Him; He is the caretaker of all things' (An'am 6/102) . He said elsewhere,
الَذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَات وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِي سَّةِتَّةِيَّيَّمٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوَي عَلَي الْعَرْشِ الرَّحْمَنِ بَرْأَلْأَْأَ
'He created the heavens and the earth and everything between them in six days; Then he ascended the throne. He is the Most Merciful, ask the one who knows about him ' (Furqan 25/59) . He said elsewhere,
Plancketure lol Cost of the Firick Jave. Lightlean Thane of Allah.
Say: Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth? Say: Allah. Say: Have you taken guardians besides Allah, who are not able to profit or harm themselves? Tell me, is blind and sight equal or is darkness and light one? But do they associate with Allah those who have created as He has created, so that creation seems to them to be similar? Say: Allah is the Creator of all things; He is the One, the Mighty ' (Ra'd 13/16) .
(4) For the sake of Aqeedah, man does not seek help from his Creator but seeks help from the dead person lying in the grave. This is what they consider to be the true religion, and they do not hesitate to call the disobedient a disbeliever. Atarshi, Charmonai, Shahjalal's tombs are crowded with millions of people and donate millions of rupees. Whenever the government, MP, minister wins, he first goes to those tombs and pours millions of rupees. The idea is that if you go to those shrines one day a year and pay money from drowning in sins all year round, all sins will be washed away. But Allah has instructed him to seek help and forgiveness only from Him. He said, ْعْعُونِي َْسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ 'You call me; I will answer your call ' (Gaffer 40/60). Elsewhere, he says:
'When My servants ask you about Me, I am near. When the caller calls me, I respond to his call. So let them respond to my call and believe in me so that they may follow the right path ' (Baqarah 2/18) . Elsewhere, he said, "Do not seek to harm anyone except Allah, and do not harm anyone. And if you do, you will surely be among the wrongdoers' (Yunus 10/106) . He said
إِنْ تَدُعُوْهُمْ لَا يَسْمَعُوْا دُعَاءَكُمْ وَلَوْ سَمِعُوْا مْا اسْتَجَابُوْا لَكُمْ وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بَمِّن
'If you call them (the dead person), they will not listen to your call, and even if they do, they will not respond to your call. On the Day of Resurrection, they will deny what you have associated with them. No one can inform you like the omniscient ' (Fatir 35/14) . Elsewhere, he said, إِنَّكَ لَا تُسْمِعُ الْمَوْتَى وَلَا تُسْمِعُ الصُّمَّ الدُّعَاءَ ذِذَا وَلَّوْا مُدْبِرِينَ- He further said, “And there is no resurrection, nor is there any death, for Allah is the Hearer of all who hear, and you are not the one who listens to the dead in the grave.” GOD is the Hearer of whomever He wills. You will not be able to hear those who are in the grave ' (Fatir 35/22) .
(D) Sahih Aqeedai is the main condition for accepting Ibadat: Islamic Shariat is divided into two parts. (1) Aqeedah or Belief: That is, to have firm belief in the six aspects of faith and to believe in its worship alone. And this is the basic tenet of Islam.
(2) Amalgat: That is, to be aware of all the methods of worshiping Allah and to act accordingly.
Therefore Aqeedah is the basic subject of Islam; Amal depends on its purity. For example, Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning ) : He said elsewhere,
وَلَقَدْ وأُحْيَ الإِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ لَئْرَكْتَ لَيَحْبَطَنَّ عَمَلُكَ
'It has been revealed to you and to those before you that if you set up a partner with Allah, then your deeds will come to naught and you will surely be of the losers' (Jumu'ah 39/75) . Elsewhere he says, وَلَوْ أَشْرَكُوْا لَحَبِطَ عَنْهُمْ مَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُونَ 'If they had been polytheists, their deeds would have been in vain' (An'am 6/7) .
From the above verses it is clear that no deed will be acceptable to Allah except pure aqeedah free from shirk. Therefore, it is essential to correct the aqeedah before performing it.
(D) Aqeedah differences at the root of the division among Muslims:Allah has sent down all the rules and regulations for the overall life of the human race and has instructed them to follow it alone. And in order to follow it, they have forbidden to be divided or separated from each other. And this instruction is the instruction of aqeedah unity. By following this command man becomes a Muslim and is saved from the severe torment of Hell in the Hereafter and paves the way for the infinite blessings of Paradise. On the other hand, by disobeying the prohibition and believing in erroneous Aqeedah, the people of Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Rafidis, Kharijites, Shia, Mu'tazilites are deprived of the infinite blessings of Paradise and the path to the severe torment of Hell. By Those of us who claim to be Muslims, perform salats facing the same Ka'bah, are also divided into hundreds today. Even if we claim to be Muslims, we become Allah ourselves by believing in false Aqeedah like 'Wahdatul Ujud'; Naujubillah. Some call Muhammad (sm) Allah, while others call Ali (R) Allah. All these erroneous aqeedahs prove the futility of their verbal acknowledgment. The disbelieving polytheists of that time believed in Tawheed Rububiyyat, that is, Allah as the only Creator, but they did not believe in Allah alone in worship. They tried to get closer to God through idolatry. Similarly, although most Muslims believe in Rabbiyyat in Tauhid, they do not fully believe in Ibadat and Asma Was Shifat in Tauhid. He wants to be close to Allah through grave worship and Pir Puja. And because of this aqeedah division, Muslims (Muhammadan Ummah) will be divided into 73 groups, of which only one group will enter Paradise. The Prophet (sm) said, Some call Ali (R) Allah. All these erroneous aqeedahs prove the futility of their verbal acknowledgment. The disbelieving polytheists of that time believed in Tawheed Rububiyyat, that is, Allah as the only Creator, but they did not believe in Allah alone in worship. They tried to get closer to God through idolatry. Similarly, although most Muslims believe in Rabbiyyat in Tauhid, they do not fully believe in Ibadat and Asma Was Shifat in Tauhid. He wants to be close to Allah through grave worship and Pir Puja. And because of this aqeedah division, Muslims (Muhammadan Ummah) will be divided into 73 groups, of which only one group will enter Paradise. The Prophet (sm) said, Some call Ali (R) Allah. All these erroneous aqeedahs prove the futility of their verbal acknowledgment. The disbelieving polytheists of that time believed in Tawheed Rububiyyat, that is, Allah as the only Creator, but they did not believe in Allah alone in worship. They tried to get closer to God through idolatry. Similarly, although most Muslims believe in Rabbiyyat in Tauhid, they do not fully believe in Ibadat and Asma Was Shifat in Tauhid. He wants to be close to Allah through grave worship and Pir Puja. And because of this aqeedah division, Muslims (Muhammadan Ummah) will be divided into 73 groups, of which only one group will enter Paradise. The Prophet (sm) said,
Queenaid alterat [miran allifles earlie than eggs of the eraful Allah (blessings and peace be upon him)
'The same thing will happen to my nation as it happened to the Children of Israel; It's like a pair of shoes being equal to each other. Even if there is a man among the Children of Israel who has committed adultery with his mother, then there will be people in my ummah who will commit adultery with his mother. The Israelites were divided into 72 groups; And my ummah will be divided into 73 groups. All parties will enter Hell, except one party. Sahabaye Keram asked, O Messenger of Allah (sm)! Which team? He said, "I and my followers are the ones who will be established on top of those who are established (they are the liberated party)." [5]
Therefore, pure aqeedah is the only way for Muslims to be united in this world and the only way to be liberated in the hereafter. Muslim unity must be built by amending each other's Aqeedah. All the prophets and messengers were the first to invite people to correct their aqeedah. Only after correcting the aqeedah did he instruct him to follow other rules of Islam including salat and shiaam. When the Prophet (sm) sent Mu'adh (R) to Yemen, he said,
Happy Roundshal, Ambazan Jawabari Suraadian
He will call upon the people there to bear witness that there is no true god but Allah, and I am the Messenger of Allah. If they accept it, then inform them that Allah has made salat obligatory on them five times a day and night. If they accept that, then inform them that Allah has made it obligatory upon them to pay Chadakbah (Zakat) on their property. Which will be taken from their rich and distributed among the poor '. [6]
It is understood from the hadith in question that first of all people should be invited to correct their aqeedah. Because Aqeedah is the basic subject of Islam. All the provisions of Islam including salat, shiaam, hajj, zakat must be complied with after entering Islam fully by amending the aqeedah. Otherwise his worship will not be accepted by Allah. Allaah says ( interpretation of the meaning): وَقَدِمْنَا إِلَى مَا عَمِلُوْا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ هَبَاءً مَنْثُوْرًا. He says, وما منعهم أن تقبل منهم نفقاتهم إلا أنهم كفروا بالله وبرسوله ولا يأتون الصلاة إلا وهم كسالى ولا ينفقون إلا وهم كارهون- ' them (the unbelievers) have been forbidden to accept gifts so that they reject Allah and His Messenger, salat Presents with weakness and gives unintentionally ' (Tawba 9/54) .
Conclusion:
In conclusion, it is not possible to erect a building without laying such a foundation. It is not possible to survive on Islam without such a foundation, and the basic foundation of Islam is Aqeedah. Man will survive on that basic foundation from birth to death. He will sacrifice everything in his life for the pleasure of Allah alone. As Allah says, ِّنَّ صَلَاتِيْ وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالِمِينَ َاَلِكَ لَلُ ُْمَْ. My salat, my worship, my life and my death are for Allah, the Lord of the worlds. He has no partner and I am commanded to do this and I am the first Muslim ' (An'am 6 / 162-173) .
Therefore, the only goal in all the activities of this worldly life is to attain Paradise by gaining the pleasure of Allah. And Allah will not be pleased with man's deeds until his aqeedah is saheeh. So the correct aqeedah is the only way to escape from the fire of hell in the hereafter. May Allah grant us the Tawfiq to understand Sahih Aqeedah and to follow it - Amen!
