Faith is based on six beliefs, and they are: 1. Allah. 2. Angel. 3. The Book of Heaven. 4. Prophet-Rasul. 5. Last Day and Resurrection and 6. To believe in the good and the bad of fortune. Explaining the meaning of faith in the terminology of Islamic law Different religious definitions of imams are observed. They are- Imam Abu Hanifa (ra.) said, “Faith is the sincere belief and verbal acceptance”. Imam Ghazali (r.a.) said, ‘Rasul (s.a.w.)) Believing in Allah with all the rules and regulations brought in by Faith’. Imam Shafi 'i, Malik and Ahmad ibn Hambal (r. According to this, faith is the belief of the heart, verbal acceptance and the act of turning the Arkansas (Islamic law) into action. The first part of the Kalima is- ‘La ilaha illallah’. Believing this wholeheartedly, without God There is no god, no god. He's single, unique. He can do everything, does everything. All power and authority are subject to Him alone. He is completely free and holy from all kinds of weaknesses, faults. From the smallest to the least, everyone is looking out for him, But to nurture the belief that he is not indifferent to anyone. The second part of Kalema is- ‘Muhammadur Rasoolullah’. Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) is the Messenger of Allah. He is the last of the Prophets. The last of the Prophets sent by Allah Almighty for the guidance of mankind. His Believing and accepting wholeheartedly that there will be no more prophets or apostles. The most valuable asset is faith. The opposite of faith is disbelief. Faith is truth, disbelief is falsehood. Faith is light, disbelief is darkness. In order to protect this belief, one must first know who the faith is. And It is also important to know what are the things that are destructive. What works is what faith does. There is faith in action and it is strengthened. Rasool (s.a.w.) warns of an era in which there will be divisions. Fetna-Fasad will prevail. Riots will increase. obscenity, shameless indecency will be widespread. And then it is very difficult for a believer to survive on faith. It is important for every believer to be vigilant - in the face of social ills and misunderstandings leading to loss of faith or loss of faith should be prevented from being damaged. May Allah not deprive us of the good fortune of our faith until death. Amen.
