True Iman True Iman is having faith in one s heart along with the affirmation or declaration of Iman by the tongue. Allah (SWT) said in Surat Al-Hujurat: The Bedouins say, "We have believed." Say, "You have not [yet] believed; but say [instead], 'We have submitted,' for faith has not yet entered your hearts. And if you obey Allah and His Messenger, He will not deprive you from your deeds of anything. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." 29/11/2020 7 www.ayaatacademy.ca
True Iman Having Iman in the heart and affirming it by the tongue saves the person from hellfire; he will not enter it if he was an obedient believer, neither will he stay there forever if he was disobedient. 29/11/2020 8 www.ayaatacademy.ca
Worship is part of Iman Both Quran and Sunnah confirm that performing acts of worship and avoiding sins are signs of a truthful Iman. The basis of Iman is believing in the Oneness of Allah (SWT), and the acts of worship and avoiding sins are what complete the Iman and speak of its truthfulness. 29/11/2020 9 www.ayaatacademy.ca
Worship is part of Iman Allah (SWT) says in Surat Al-Anfal: The believers are only those who, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts become fearful, and when His verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith; and upon their Lord they rely. The ones who establish prayer, and from what We have provided them, they spend. Those are the believers, truly. For them are degrees [of high position] with their Lord and forgiveness and noble provision 29/11/2020 10 www.ayaatacademy.ca
