tymology 0edit2
4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets

J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

tymology 0edit2
4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

tymology 0edit2
4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets

Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets

J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

tymology 0edit2
4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets

Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets

J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

tymology 0edit2
4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has
-ritten0O2
gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has
-ritten0O2
gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has
-ritten0O2
gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan

it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2

tymology 0edit2
4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has
-ritten0O2
gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets

J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

tymology 0edit2
4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has
-ritten0O2
gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has
-ritten0O2
gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od
L odY 4 hae resined myself to o and 4 hae consined my matter to yo and hae takenspport from o fearin or rander and moin to-ards o in anticipation gthere is no refe

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen

4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has
-ritten0O2
gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in
Allah in Bis sins and in Bis directies and sbmits himself to Bim and is pleased -ith all Bisdecisions is a mmin

3elief in the Vrophets
lt 3elief in the Day of 5dment
J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182
+elineation in the Quran and adith0edit2
This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4n the Arabic lanae 3man denotes faith or certitde to the nseen
Meaning0edit2
4n a hadith hammad defined faith (4man as a kno-lede in the heart a oicin -ith the toneand an actiity -ith the limbs gthoh faith is kno-in sayin and doin Faith is confidence in atrth -hich is real not a spposed one so -hen people hae confidence to the trth they sbmitthemseles to that trth 4t is not sfficient st to kno- the trth bt the reconition of the heartshold be epressed by the tone -hich is the manifestation of the intellience and at last to reflectthis confidence in their actiities0J2
4man can be stated as ackno-ledin od -ith fll sincerity of heart -hile acceptin all his attribtesand their obios corollaries0clarify 20K2 FarPhQ -hile eplainin the meanin of 4mPn in his eeesis has

gthe root of imPn is amn 4t is sed in arios shades of meanin0N2 Lne of its deriaties is mumin-hich is amon the noble names of Allah becase Be ies peace to those -ho seek Bis refegthis -ord is also an ancient reliios term Bence the certitde -hich eists -ith hmility trst andall the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a ie- is called imPn and he -ho professes faith in

J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162

4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812

3elief in the Vrophets

J 3elief in Allahs predestination
Lf these the first fie are mentioned toether in the )ran01T2
and by hammad -hile incldin acorollary of belief in Allah ~ the ood and eil of fate ordained by od ~ has referred to all sitoether in the follo-in manner in the Badith of abriel
4man is that yo beliee in od and Bis Anels and Bis 3ooks and Bis esseners and theBereafter and the ood and eil fate 0ordained by yor od2 0112
Another similar narration ascribed to hammad is
4bn Abbas narrates that the Anel 5ibril once asked the Vrophet gtell me -hat is 4manu gtheVrophet replied 4man is to beliee in Allah the Day of 5dment Bis (Allahs Anels 3ooks andVrophets and to beliee in life after death and to beliee in Varadise and the Fire and the settin pof the ian (scales to -eih the deeds and to beliee in the Diine Decree the ood and the badof it (all 5ibril then asked him 4f 4 do all this -ill 4 be -ith 4manu gthe Vrophet said When yohae done all of this yo -ill be hain 4man0162
4t is also assmed that the essential 4man consists of the first 8 items (3elief in od Vrophets andthe Bereafter0182

This article relies too much on references to primary sources Please iprove this article byaddin secondary or tertiary sources (May 2015)
4n the )ran 4man is one of the 1T Ualities -hich case one to be the recipient of ods mercy andre-ard012 gthe )ran states that faith can ro- -ith remembrance of od 01lt2 gthe )ran also statesthat nothin in this -orld shold be dearer to a tre belieer than faith01J2
hammad is reported to hae said that he ained s-eetness of faith -ho -as pleased to acceptod as Gord 4slam as reliion and hammad as prophet 01K2 Be also said that no one can be a trebelieer nless he loes the Vrophet more than his children parents and relaties01O201N2 At anotherinstance he has remarked that it is this loe -ith od and hammad after -hich a person can bea-are of the real taste of faith 06T20612
Amin Ahsan 4slahi a notable eeete of the )ran has clarified the natre of this loe0662
it does not merely imply the passionate loe one natrally has for ones -ife children and otherrelaties bt it also refers to the loe on the basis of intellect and principles for some ie-point andstance 4t is becase of this loe that a person in eery sphere of life ies priority to this ie-pointand principle o mch so if the demands of his -ife children and relaties clash -ith thedemands of this ie-point he adheres to it and -ithot any hesitation trns do-n the desires of his-ife and children and the demands of his family and clan
4slahi and addi both hae inferred that the )ranic comparison of a ood -ord and a bad -ordin 7hapter 10682 is actally a comparison of faith and disbelief gths the )ran is effectielycomparin faith to a tree -hose roots are deep in the soil and branches spread in the astness ofthe sky062
4man is also the sbect of a spplication ttered by hammad to od

he 55 ranches of Iman0edit2
gthe KK 3ranches of Faith is a collection compiled by 4mam AlC3ayhaUi in his -ork Sh`a al-3man 4n
it he eplains the essential irtes that reflect tre faith (4man throh related )ranic erses andprophetic sayins06J206K2
gthis is based on the follo-in Badith ascribed to hammad
Ab Brayrah narrated that the Vrophet said 4man has more than KT branches gthe most ecellentamon these branches is the sayin of Gaa ilaaha ill Allah (there is no od bt Allah and thesmallest branch is to remoe an obstacle from the -ayside And Baya (modesty is an importantbranch of 4man06O2
aith and deeds0edit2
4n 4slam it is essential that there eist harmony and concord bet-een faith and deeds FarPhQ haseplained this aspect in his tafsQr in the follo-in manner 06N2
Hihteos deeds are mentioned in the )rPn riht after faith in the capacity of an eplanation 4nthe case of faith the need for its eplanation is obios the place of faith is the heart and theintellect 4n matters of intellect and heart not only can a person deceie others bt also at times hehimself can remain in deception Be considers himself to be a mmin (belieer -hereas actally heis not For this reason t-o testimonies needed to be reUired for it a persons -ords and a personsdeeds ince -ords can be ntre hence a person -ho only professes faith throh -ords is notrearded as a mmin and it -as deemed essential that a persons deeds also testify to his faithgths the )rPn said 2 yo who elie6e with the tongeK Belie6e throgh yor deeds08T2
aith and reason in Islam0edit2
gthe relation bet-een reason and faith in 4slam is a comple debate spannin oer centries 4smailHai alCFarUi states on this sbect
As for the nonCslims they may contest the principles of 4slam gthey mst kno- ho-eer that4slam does not present its principles domatically for those -ho beliee or -ish to belieeeclsiely 4t does so rationally critically 4t comes to s armed -ith loical and coherent armentsand epects or acUiescence on rational and hence necessary ronds 4t is not leitimate for sto disaree on the relatiist basis of personal taste or that of sbectie eperience 0812
