10 Things Which Nullify One's Islam (ARTICLE)
|
Ten Things Which Nullify One's Islam
By Shaikh Abdul Aziz ibn Abdullah ibn Baz
All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds. May peace and
salutations be upon the Last Messenger of Allah, and upon all those who
follow him until the Last day.
To proceed: Brother and Sister
Muslim, you must be aware that there are matters which nullify your
Islam. Please be mindful of them.
1. Associating partners with Allah (shirk). Allah Most High says (in the meaning):
"Truly,
whosoever sets up partners with Allah, then Allah has forbidden the
Garden for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the wrongdoers
there are no helpers." (Soorah Al-Maa'ida 5:72)
Calling upon the dead, asking their help, or offering them gifts or sacrifices are all forms of shirk.
2.
Setting up intermediaries between oneself and Allah, making
supplication to them, asking their intercession with Allah, and placing
ones trust in them is unbelief (kufr).
3.
Anyone who does not consider the polytheists (mushrikeen) to be
unbelievers, or who has doubts concerning their unbelief, or considers
their way to be correct, is himself/herself an unbeliever (kafir).
4. Anyone
who believes any guidance to be more perfect, or a decision other than
the Prophets decision to be better, is an unbeliever. This applies to
those who prefer the rule of Evil (Taghout) to the Prophets rule. Some
examples of this are:
(a) To believe that systems and laws made by human beings are better than the Shariah of Islam; for example,
- That the Islamic system is not suitable for the twentieth century.
- That Islam is the cause of the backwardness of the Muslims.
- Or that al-Islam is a relationship between Allah and the Muslim. It should not interfere in other aspects of life.
(b)To
say that enforcing the punishments prescribed Allah, such as cutting of
the hand of the thief or the stoning of an adulterer, is not suitable
for this day and age.
(c) To
believe that it is permissible to give a rule from that which Allah did
not reveal in Islamic transactions or matters of law, punishments or
other affairs. Although one may not believe such things to be superior
to the Shari'ah he in effect affirms such a stand by declaring a thing
which Allah has totally prohibited, such as adultery, drinking alcohol
or usury, to be permissible. According to the consensus of the Muslims,
one who declares such things to be permissible is an unbeliever (Kafir)
5.
Anyone who hates any part of what the Messenger of Allah [saw] has
declared to be lawful has nullified his Islam, even though he may act
in accordance with it. Allah Most High says(in the meaning):
"This is because they hate what Allah has sent down, so he has made their deeds fruitless" (Soorah Muhammad 47:9)
6.
Anyone who ridicules any aspect of the religion of the Messenger of
Allah [saw], or any of its rewards or punishments, becomes an
unbeliever. Allah Most High says (in the meaning):
"Say:
Was it Allah, and His signs and His Messenger that you were mocking?
Make no excuse; you have disbelieved after you had believed." (Soorah
At-Tawbah 9:65-66)
7.
The practice of magic. Included in this, for example, is causing a rift
between a husband and wife by turning his love for her into hatred, or
tempting a person to do things he dislikes using black arts. One who
engages in such a thing or is pleased with it is outside the fold of
Islam. Allah Most High says (in the meaning):
"But
neither of these two (angels, Harut and Marut) taught anyone (magic)
till they had said, Indeed, we are a trial; then do not disbelieve."
(Soorah Al-Baqarah 2:102)
8. Supporting and aiding polytheists against the Muslims. Allah Most High says (in the meaning):
"Whoever
among you who takes them as allies is surely one of them. Truly, Allah
does not guide the wrongdoers." (Soorah Al-Maaida 5:51)
9.
Anyone who believes that some people are permitted to deviate from the
Shariah of Muhammad [saw] is an un believer by the word of Allah Most
High (in the meaning):
"And
whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will not be accepted of
him, and in the hereafter he will be from among the losers." (Soorah
Aal-Imraan 3:85)
10.
To turn completely away from the religion of Allah neither learning its
precepts nor acting upon it. Allah most high says (what means):
"And
who does greater wrong than he who is reminded of the revelations of
his Lord and turns aside there from. Truly, We shall exact retribution
from the guilty." (Soorah As-Sajdah 32:22)
and He [swt] also says (what means):
"But those who disbelieve turn away from that about which they are warned."
It makes no difference whether such violations are committed as a joke,
in seriousness or out of fear, except when done under compulsion (i.e.
from threat of loss of life). We seek refuge in Allah from such deeds
as entail His wrath and severe punishment.

Things That Nullify Your Islaam
by Dr. Saalih as-Saalih
Stated Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan in his introduction:
" Knowledge of them is very important for the Muslim, so that he can
stay away from them and be warned about them. And also if the Muslim is
not aware of them, then it is feared that he may somehow fall into one
of them. It is an issue of great significance and extreme importance,
since they are the very things that nullify one's Islaam and invalidate
it. So then knowledge of the reasons for apostasy is very important "
Included are 33 questions on the topic, answered by Shaykh Saalih
himself, a number of passages from his other works in the footnotes and
in separate appendixes, along with the complete text of the original
"Things that Nullify One's Islaam" in Arabic. This publication is
expected to have a great impact on the Muslims' understanding of their
Religion, in shaa' Allaah, and cause many to take heed about vital
affairs that have often been ignored or given little regard.

Maa (Water) Living Things Made From It
Maa' (Water)
Everything Living Made From It
In This Lesson - Surah An-Nur 24:45
- Tafsir Ibn Katheer of Surah
- Questions & Activities
Surah An-Nur 24:45
"Allβh has created every moving (living) creature from water.
Of them there are some that creep on their bellies, some that walk on two legs, and some that walk on four.
Allβh creates what He wills.
Verily! Allβh is Able to do all things. "
Surat An-Nur 24:45
http://www.thenoblequran.com/sps/nbq/
Tafsir Ibn Katheer
Allah's Power in His creation of the Animals
Allah mentions His complete and almighty power to create all the
different kinds of animals with their various forms, colors and ways of
moving and stopping, from one kind of water.
"Of them there are some that creep on their bellies," like snakes and so on;
"and some that walk on two legs," like humans and birds;
"and some that walk on four," like cattle and all kinds of animals.
Allah says: "Allah creates what He wills." meaning by His power,
because what He wills happens and what He does not will does not happen.
So He says: "Verily, Allah is able to do all things."
Activities & Questions
1-- Name living creatures that "creep on their bellies"
2-- Name living creatures that "walk on two legs"
3-- Name living creatures that "walk on four legs"
What do these creatures have in common according to the surah above?
Who created them each of these creatures?
Describe the places (habitat) where each creature lives.
Discuss Tauheed (the Oneness of Allah) as it relates to this topic.

Maa' (Water) Zamzam
The best, most beneficial, freshest, most beloved and most precious water on earth is Zamzam water.
Zamzam water was dug up by Angel Jibril (Gabriel) for the Prophet Isma'il (alayhe sallam) to drink from.
Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhe wa sallam) called it a "nutritious
food" in the Sahihain narrated as stated to Abu Tharr. Muslim added
that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhe wa sallam) said "And a cure from
ailment."
In addition to that, Ibn Majah narrated that Jabir bin 'Abdullah
related from the Prophet (sallallahu alayhe wa sallam) that he said
"Zamzam water is for whatever was intended behind drinking it."
