Question No.1Why has Allaah created us?

AnswerTo worship Him alone and to worship no other besides Him.

Evidence from the Noble Qur.aan{And I have not createdJinn and human beings except they shouldworship Me}, {Soorah adh-Dhaariyaat, Aayah 56]

Evidence from the authentic Sunnah((The right of Allaah upon slaves is to worship Him and not toassociate partners with Him)), Transmitted by al-Bukhaaree and Muslim]

Nifaq is of 2 types:1. nifaq [hypocrisy] of belief

2. nifaq of action

1. nifaq of belief: it is to outwardly demonstrate Islaam whilstinwardly there is kufr [disbelief]. The individual who practices this

type is a muslim outwardly and a kafir and zindeeq [heretic]

inwardly and when he dies he is in the lowest depths of the fire. as

Alla said, "Verily, the hyprocrites will be in the lowest depths (grade) of

the Fire; no helper will you find for them." (An-Nisa 4:145) "Exceptthose who repent (from hypocrisy), do righteous good deeds, hold fastto Allh, and purify their religion for Allh (by worshipping none but

Allh, and do good for Allh's sake only, not to show-off), then they willbe with the believers. And Allh will grant to the believers a greatreward." (An-Nisa 4:146)

2. nifaq of actions: as for the nifaq of action then it is what ismentioned in these two ahadeeth from the five blameworthy

attributes

abu huraira radi allahu anhu said, Messenger of Allah sallallahualayhe wasallam said, "the sings of munafiq are three: when hespeaks, he lies, when he promises, he breaks the promise, if youtrust him, he proves to be dishonest, [if you keep something as atrust with him, he will not return it] - [Bukhari and Muslim]

abdullah ibn amr radi allahu anhu said, who said that the

Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhe wa sallam said, "there are

four characteristics of munafiq, whosoever has all of them in

him is a true munafiq, and whoever has in him someof them,then he has some part of nifaq in him until he leaves it. when he

is trusted, he proves to be dishonest, when he speaks, he lies,

when he makes a promise he breaks it, when eh disputes, he

uses evil languages." [bukhari]

Defination of Islam: Islam is to submit to Allah with Tawheed,and surrendering ones full obedience to Allah, and leaving of shirkand innovation and their people (people of shirk and innovation).

[003 al-imraan :019] Truly, the religion with Allh is Islm.

[039 az-zumar:054] And turn in repentance and in obediencewith true Faith (Islmic Monotheism) to your Lord and submit toHim (in Islm) before the torment comes upon you, (and) then you

will not be helped.

[019:048] And I (ibrahim) shall turn away from you (his father)

and from those whom you invoke besides Allh. And I shall callupon my Lord and I hope that I shall not be unblest in myinvocation to my Lord.

Muhammad Rasul Allah means: with the explanation of the

testimony that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and its

requisite are: to believe him in what he informed, and to obey

him in what he ordered, and to leave off what he forbade about

and prevented from and that Allah is not worshiped except with

what Allah legislated and His Messenger sallallahu alayhe wasallam.

The excellence of the prayer and its wiping away of sins and evil deeds

From Aboo Hurairah radi allahu anhu who said that i heard Allah's

Messenger sallallahu alayhe wa sallam say: do you think that if

there was a river at the door of one of you and he bathed in it five

times a day, would any dirt remain upon him? they said, no dirtwould remain upon him. He said, that is how it is with the five

daily prayers, through them Allah washes away the sins." [al-

Bukhari and Muslim]

Aboo Huraira radi allahu anhu, also narrates that Allah's

Messenger sallallahu alayhe wa sallam said, the five daily prayers,

and the Jumu'ah to the Jumu'ah are an expiation for what is

between them, as long as one is not guilty of major-sins. [Muslim]

From Uthmaan radi allahu anhu, who said that Allah's Messenger

sallallahu alayhe wa sallam said, there is no muslim upon whom

the obligatory prayer becomes due, so he perfects the wudhu,

humility and attentiveness [khushu] and the bowing [ruku] except

that it is an expiation of the sins that is coming before it as long as

he does not commit major sins. This applies all the time. [Muslim]
