( مَنِ اهْتَدَى فَإِنَّمَا يَهْتَدِي لِنَفْسِهِ وَمَنْ ضَلَّ فَإِنَّمَا يَضِلُّ عَلَيْهَا وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَى وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّى نَبْعَثَ رَسُولًا )) " 15 " الاسراء
من طرف What is Islam?
Islam means ýsubmission, obedience, surrender and compliance with the command and ýprohibition of the commander without objections. Allah has named the true ýreligion, ‘Islam’ for it is an obedience to him, submission to His Commands ýwithout any resistance, purifying acts of worship for Him, believing in His ýwords and having faith in Him. Islam then became a proper name for the ýreligion brought by Muhammad.ý
Why was this religion named Islam?
Adherents of various religions all over the ýworld have named their religions, either with the name of a man or a particular ýrace like Christianity, which was named after Jesus Christ; and Buddhism was ýnamed after its founder Buddha; and Zoroastrianism was named after its founder ýand flag banner, Zoroaster. Judaism had also emerged among the tribe of Judah ýand so on. The All-Mighty Allah Himself called it Islam when He said,
{{Truly, the religion with Allâh is Islâm. (submission to His Will)}},(Holy Qur'an 3:1) It is only Islam that is not attributed to any particular man or ýnation. Its name indicates a special characteristic that the meaning of Islam ýdenotes. It is evident in this name that no man has any role in bringing this ýreligion into existence and that it is not peculiar with any nation to the ýexclusion of others. Its only goal is to make all people of the earth have ýcharacteristics of Islam. So, whoever is characterized with the qualities of ýIslam among ancient people and contemporary people is a Muslim, just as he ýshall be called a Muslim, and anyone who possesses its qualities among the coming ýgenerations.
The Message of Islam:
The most important message of Islam is the absolute Unity of God-that there is only One Supreme Being who has no partners and is not dependent on anyone or anything. He is the creator of everything and the whole universe is under His control. Since the total submission of one's will to Allah represents the essence of worship, Islam is the worship of Allah alone and the avoidance of worship directed to any person, place or thing other than Allah. In essence, Islam calls man away from the worship of creation and invites him to worship only its Creator. Allah is the only one deserving man's worship as it is only by His will that prayers are answered. Hence prayers to the non-living such as the sun, fire, and to humans whether they are Jesus, Moses or even Muhammad are rejected, as Allah informs us in the opening chapter of the Holy Qur'an,:
{{You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything).}}( Holy Qur'an 1:4)
