The 1st Dars (class): [Definition of Faith (Iman)] dated 25 Shawwal 1445H ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

Deen (Religion) is of three ranks:
Islam, Iman, and Ihsan. 


Definition of Faith (Iman):
Creeds, statements, and actions, that increase by good deeds, and decrease by bad deeds.

Fundamentals of Islamic doctrine:


Islam is a doctrine and a Shariโ€™a (Islamic Legislation),  


Islamic doctrine has six fundamentals, and they are called faith pillars, and they are:

1- The Belief in Allรขh.           

2- The Belief in Angels

3- The Belief in Noble Books.          

4- The Belief in Messengers.

5- The Belief in The Last Day (Day of Resurrection)

6- The Belief in Al-Qadar (Destiny) good and evil.


In fact, this is shown in Allรขhโ€™s Noble Book and in His Messengerโ€™s Sunnah.


In Allah's Book, He Taala says, 


( ู„ู‘ูŽูŠู’ุณูŽ ุงู„ู’ุจูุฑู‘ูŽ ุฃูŽู† ุชููˆูŽู„ู‘ููˆุง ูˆูุฌููˆู‡ูŽูƒูู…ู’ ู‚ูุจูŽู„ูŽ ุงู„ู’ู…ูŽุดู’ุฑูู‚ู ูˆูŽุงู„ู’ู…ูŽุบู’ุฑูุจู ูˆูŽู„ูŽูฐูƒูู†ู‘ูŽ ุงู„ู’ุจูุฑู‘ูŽ ู…ูŽู†ู’ ุขู…ูŽู†ูŽ ุจูุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ูˆูŽุงู„ู’ูŠูŽูˆู’ู…ู ุงู„ู’ุขุฎูุฑู ูˆูŽุงู„ู’ู…ูŽู„ูŽุงุฆููƒูŽุฉู ูˆูŽุงู„ู’ูƒูุชูŽุงุจู ูˆูŽุงู„ู†ู‘ูŽุจููŠู‘ููŠู†ูŽ)

 - meaning โ€“ โ€œIt is not righteousness that you turn your faces 

towards East or West; but it is righteousness to believe in Allรขh and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengersโ€, and concerning the Qadar (Destiny), He Taala says, 

โ€œุฅูู†ู‘ูŽุง ูƒูู„ู‘ูŽ ุดูŽูŠู’ุกู ุฎูŽู„ูŽู‚ู’ู†ูŽุงู‡ู ุจูู‚ูŽุฏูŽุฑู. ูˆูŽู…ูŽุง ุฃูŽู…ู’ุฑูู†ูŽุง ุฅูู„ุง ูˆูŽุงุญูุฏูŽุฉูŒ ูƒูŽู„ูŽู…ู’ุญู ุจูุงู„ู’ุจูŽุตูŽุฑูโ€

 - meaning โ€“ {Verily, all things have We created in proportion and measure. And Our Command is but a single (Act), like the twinkling of an eye}.


Omar bin Al-Khattab narrated - As in Saheeh Muslim - , โ€˜One day we were sitting in the company of Allรขh's Messenger when there appeared before us a man dressed in pure white clothes, his hair extraordinarily black. There were no signs of travel on him. None amongst us recognized him. At last, he sat with the Messenger. He knelt before him placed his palms on his thighs and said, โ€˜O Muhammad ๏ทบ, inform me about Islรขmโ€™. The Messenger of Allรขh ๏ทบ said, 

โ€œุงู„ุฅุณู’ู„ุงู…ู ุฃู†ู’ ุชูŽุดู’ู‡ูŽุฏูŽ ุฃู†ู’ ู„ุง ุฅู„ูŽู‡ูŽ ุฅู„ู‘ูŽุง ุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ูˆุฃู†ู‘ูŽ ู…ูุญูŽู…ู‘ูŽุฏู‹ุง ุฑูŽุณูˆู„ู ุงู„ู„ู‡ู ุตูŽู„ู‘ูŽู‰ ุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ุนู„ูŠู‡ ูˆุณู„ู‘ูŽู…ูŽุŒ ูˆุชูู‚ููŠู…ูŽ ุงู„ุตู‘ูŽู„ุงุฉูŽุŒ ูˆุชูุคู’ุชููŠูŽ ุงู„ุฒู‘ูŽูƒุงุฉูŽุŒ ูˆุชูŽุตููˆู…ูŽ ุฑูŽู…ูŽุถุงู†ูŽุŒ ูˆุชูŽุญูุฌู‘ูŽ ุงู„ุจูŽูŠู’ุชูŽ ุฅู†ู ุงุณู’ุชูŽุทูŽุนู’ุชูŽ ุฅู„ูŽูŠู’ู‡ู ุณูŽุจููŠู„ู‹ุงโ€

He (the inquirer) said, โ€˜You have told the truthโ€™. He (Umar ibn al-Khattab) said, โ€˜It amazed us that he would put the question and then he would himself verify the truthโ€™. He (the inquirer) said, โ€˜Inform me about Iman (Faith)โ€™. He (the Prophet) ๏ทบ replied,

 โ€œุฃู†ู’ ุชูุคู’ู…ูู†ูŽ ุจุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ูุŒ ูˆู…ูŽู„ุงุฆููƒูŽุชูู‡ูุŒ ูˆูƒูุชูุจูู‡ูุŒ ูˆุฑูุณูู„ูู‡ูุŒ ูˆุงู„ู’ูŠูŽูˆู…ู ุงู„ุขุฎูุฑูุŒ ูˆุชูุคู’ู…ูู†ูŽ ุจุงู„ู‚ูŽุฏูŽุฑู ุฎูŽูŠู’ุฑูู‡ู ูˆุดูŽุฑู‘ูู‡ูโ€

 - meaning - โ€œThat you affirm your faith in Allรขh, in His angels, in His Books, in His Messengers, in the Day of Judgment, and you affirm your faith in the Divine Decree about good and evilโ€. 

He (the inquirer) said, โ€˜You have told the truthโ€™. 

He (the inquirer) again said, โ€˜Inform me about al-Ihsan (performance of good deeds)โ€™. He (the Noble Prophet) ๏ทบ said, 

โ€œุฃู†ู’ ุชูŽุนู’ุจูุฏูŽ ุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ูŽ ูƒูŽุฃู†ู‘ูŽูƒูŽ ุชูŽุฑุงู‡ูุŒ ูุฅู†ู’ ู„ูŽู…ู’ ุชูŽูƒูู†ู’ ุชูŽุฑุงู‡ู ูุฅู†ู‘ูŽู‡ ูŠูŽุฑุงูƒูŽโ€

 - meaning - โ€œThat you worship Allรขh as if you are seeing Him, for though you don't see Him, He, verily, sees youโ€.  

He (the inquirer) again said, โ€˜Inform me about the hour (of the Doom)โ€™. 

He (the Prophet) ๏ทบ remarked, โ€œOne who is asked knows no more than the one who is inquiring (about it)โ€. 

He (the inquirer) said, โ€˜Tell me some of its indicationsโ€™. 

He (the Holy Prophet) ๏ทบ said, 

โ€œุฃู†ู’ ุชูŽู„ูุฏูŽ ุงู„ุฃู…ูŽุฉู ุฑูŽุจู‘ูŽุชูŽู‡ุงุŒ ูˆุฃูŽู†ู’ ุชูŽุฑูŽู‰ ุงู„ุญููุงุฉูŽ ุงู„ุนูุฑุงุฉูŽ ุงู„ุนุงู„ูŽุฉูŽ ุฑูุนุงุกูŽ ุงู„ุดู‘ูŽุงุกู ูŠูŽุชูŽุทุงูˆูŽู„ููˆู†ูŽ ููŠ ุงู„ุจูู†ู’ูŠุงู†ูโ€

 - meaning - โ€œThat the slave-girl will give birth to her mistress and master, that you will find barefooted, destitute goat-herds vying with one another in the construction of magnificent buildingsโ€. 

He (the narrator, Umar ibn al-Khattab) said, โ€˜Then he (the inquirer) went on his way but I stayed with him (the Noble Prophet) for a long while. 

He ๏ทบ then, said to me, 

โ€œูŠุง ุนูู…ูŽุฑู ุฃุชูŽุฏู’ุฑููŠ ู…ูŽู†ู ุงู„ุณู‘ูŽุงุฆูู„ูุŸโ€

 - meaning - โ€œOmar, do you know who this inquirer was?โ€ I replied, โ€˜Allรขh and His Messenger know bestโ€™. He (the Noble Prophet) ๏ทบ remarked,

 โ€œุฅู†ู‘ูŽู‡ ุฌูุจู’ุฑููŠู„ู ุฃุชุงูƒูู…ู’ ูŠูุนูŽู„ู‘ูู…ููƒูู…ู’ ุฏููŠู†ูŽูƒูู…ู’โ€

 - meaning - โ€œHe was Jibril (Gabriel, the Angel). He came to you in order to instruct you in matters of your religionโ€.


As a matter of fact, these pillars are set into full agreement amongst Messengers and Divine Laws. Noble Books have been descended to assure, and none of the mankind is considered faithful except after believing in them, and whoever denies one of them is kept out of faith into unfaith.

The 2nd Dars (class):  [1st pillar: The Belief in Allรขh]dated 3rd of D. Qaadah 1445H๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡ 

1- The Belief in Allรขh

The Belief in Allรขh is the faith and the certain dogma that He is the Lord, Owner, and Creator all of what exists. And it is to believe that He is the only One who deserves to be worshipped, and He is the One who has the Perfect Descriptions which is far above defects and deficiency in addition to adherence to it in word and deed.

Belief in Allรขh includes four subjects:

First: the belief in His Existence
Human nature, mind, Shariโ€™a, and common sense prove this fact.
1- Evidence of human nature on the Existence of Allรขh: every creature is created in a pattern that he has a Creator without any previous planning or learning. And no one is ever distorted from this pattern except those who were subjected to effecting incidents. For the Prophet 
๏ทบ says,
 โ€œูƒูู„ู‘ู ู…ูŽูˆู’ู„ููˆุฏู ูŠููˆู„ูŽุฏู ุนู„ูŽู‰ ุงู„ููุทู’ุฑูŽุฉูุŒ ูุฃุจูŽูˆูŽุงู‡ู ูŠูู‡ูŽูˆู‘ูุฏูŽุงู†ูู‡ูุŒ ุฃูˆู’ ูŠูู†ูŽุตู‘ูุฑูŽุงู†ูู‡ูุŒ ุฃูˆู’ ูŠูู…ูŽุฌู‘ูุณูŽุงู†ูู‡ูโ€ ุงู„ุจุฎุงุฑูŠ
 - meaning โ€“ โ€œEvery child is born on Al-Fitrah (Islรขm) and then his parents make him Jewish, Christian or Magian.โ€

2- Evidence of human mind on the Existence of Allรขh: this is illustrated in the fact that all of these creatures -preceding and succeeding- must have a Creator in order to exist, because they can not create themselves and they can not be created by chance as well. And what Allรขh 
Taala said assures it, 

โ€œุฃูŽู…ู’ ุฎูู„ูู‚ููˆุง ู…ูู†ู’ ุบูŽูŠู’ุฑู ุดูŽูŠู’ุกู ุฃูŽู…ู’ ู‡ูู…ู’ ุงู„ู’ุฎูŽุงู„ูู‚ููˆู†ูŽโ€

 - meaning โ€“ {Were they created of nothing, or were they themselves the creators?}.


3- Evidence of Islรขmic Legislation on the Existence of Allรขh. This is because all Holy Books confirm this fact, and the Divine Laws which have been descended including the best advantage to the creation is the strongest evidence that it descended from an All-Wise All-Knower Lord Who knows best about their benefits. Moreover, all what we see and hear about these universal signs is a true evidence that it came from a Lord Who is Able to do anything He told about.


4- Evidence of the common sense on the Existence of Allรขh is illustrated in two ways:
First one: we often see and hear the response to those who invoke and call upon Allรขh for help, the matter that proves certainly His Existence. This is mentioned clearly in the Qurโ€™รขn:

โ€œูˆูŽู†ููˆุญู‹ุง ุฅูุฐู’ ู†ูŽุงุฏูŽู‰ ู…ูู†ู’ ู‚ูŽุจู’ู„ู ููŽุงุณู’ุชูŽุฌูŽุจู’ู†ูŽุง ู„ูŽู‡ูโ€

 - meaning โ€“ โ€œ(Remember) Nuh (Noah), when he cried (to Us) aforetime: We listened to his (prayer)โ€. And in the Sunnah we know the story of the Bedouin man who asked the Messenger of Allรขh (๏ทบ) call Allรขh to them for rain.
Second one: signs of Prophets which are called Miracles have been perceived by so many people, this proves as well the Existence of their Sender (Allรขh) because these are supernatural phenomena gifted to those Prophets for support and aid. Such as,
- Musa (Moses) who stroke the sea with his rod so it was divided.
- Jesus who raised the dead.
- Muhammad 
(๏ทบ) who pointed to the moon so it was divided into two.

The 3rd Dars (class):  [1st pillar: The Belief in Allรขh (Worship) and (La Ilaha Illa Allah)]

Dated 10th of D. Qaadah 1445H๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡ 


Second, The Belief in His Rububiah (Lordship)
This means that He is the only Lord and He has no partner and no supporter. (Tawhรฎd Ar-Rububiah). Ar-Rub (Lord) is the One Who has the Creation, the Ownership, and the Commandment, Allรขh 
Taala said, 

โ€œุฃูŽู„ุง ู„ูŽู‡ู ุงู„ู’ุฎูŽู„ู’ู‚ู ูˆูŽุงู„ุฃู…ู’ุฑูโ€

 - meaning โ€“ {Everything is governed by laws under His Command}. And He Taala said, 
โ€œุชูŽุจูŽุงุฑูŽูƒูŽ ุงู„ู‘ูŽุฐููŠ ุจููŠูŽุฏูู‡ู ุงู„ู’ู…ูู„ู’ูƒู ูˆูŽู‡ููˆูŽ ุนูŽู„ูŽู‰ ูƒูู„ู‘ู ุดูŽูŠู’ุกู ู‚ูŽุฏููŠุฑูŒโ€
 โ€“ meaning โ€“ {Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion, and He is Able to do all things.}

Third: The Belief in His Worship
This means that no one has the right to be worshipped but Allรขh with no other partner. (Tawhรฎd Al-Uluhiah). Al-Ilah (God) is the One who should be worshipped with love and glorification, Allรขh Taala said,
 โ€œูˆูŽุฅูู„ูŽู‡ููƒูู…ู’ ุฅูู„ูŽู‡ูŒ ูˆูŽุงุญูุฏูŒ ู„ุง ุฅูู„ูŽู‡ูŽ ุฅูู„ุง ู‡ููˆูŽ ุงู„ุฑู‘ูŽุญู’ู…ูŽุงู†ู ุงู„ุฑู‘ูŽุญููŠู…ูโ€
 - meaning โ€“ {And your Ilah (God) is One Ilah (God - Allah), La ilaha illa Huwa (there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He), the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.}.

The 4th Dars (class):  [1st pillar: The Belief in Allรขh (Worship) What is worship? and nullifiers of Islam]

Dated 17th of D. Qaadah 1445H๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡ 


What is worshipping? 

The linguistic meaning of worship is: subservience and submission. 

And in Shriโ€™a (Islรขmic Legislation), it is: as Shiekh Al-Islรขm Ibn Taimiah said, โ€œit is the obedience of Allรขh, in doing what He has ordered through His Messengers. 

And he said also: โ€œworship is: a comprehensive name for all what Allรขh likes and pleases at among actions, sayings and deeds apparently and concealedโ€. 

Therefore, Muslim has to admit Oneness to His Lord in all kinds of worships, and do it sincerely the way the Prophet has ruled by word and deed.

 

Worship comprehends the following kinds: 

Be informed that worship comprehends Salat (Prayer), Tawaf (circumambulating), Hajj (Pilgrimage), Syiamm (Fasting), Nathr (Vow), Ietikaf (seclusion), Thabh (slaughtering), Sujud (prostration), Ruku (kneeling), Khawf (fear), Rahbah (awe), Raghbah (desire), Khashiah (fear causing avoidance), Tawakkul (depending), Istighathah (call upon for help), and Rajaa (hope) and many other kinds of worship which were decreed by Allรขh in His Noble Book, or by His Messenger in the Sound Sunnah in word and deed. Therefore, if any of these is offered to someone besides Allรขh, then this is considered Shirk (Polytheism), for Allรขh says,

 โ€œูˆูŽู…ูŽู†ู’ ูŠูŽุฏู’ุนู ู…ูŽุนูŽ ุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ุฅูู„ูŽู‡ู‹ุง ุขุฎูŽุฑูŽ ู„ุง ุจูุฑู’ู‡ูŽุงู†ูŽ ู„ูŽู‡ู ุจูู‡ู ููŽุฅูู†ู‘ูŽู…ูŽุง ุญูุณูŽุงุจูู‡ู ุนูู†ู’ุฏูŽ ุฑูŽุจู‘ูู‡ู ุฅูู†ู‘ูŽู‡ู ู„ุง ูŠููู’ู„ูุญู ุงู„ู’ูƒูŽุงููุฑููˆู†ูŽโ€ 

- meaning โ€“ {If anyone invokes, besides Allรขh, any other god, he has no authority therefor; and his reckoning will be only with his Lord! And verily the Unbelievers will fail to win through!}, and He says,

 โ€œูˆูŽุฃูŽู†ู‘ูŽ ุงู„ู’ู…ูŽุณูŽุงุฌูุฏูŽ ู„ูู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ููŽู„ุง ุชูŽุฏู’ุนููˆุง ู…ูŽุนูŽ ุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ุฃูŽุญูŽุฏู‹ุงโ€ 

- meaning โ€“ โ€œAnd the places of worship are for Allรขh (alone): so call not upon anyone along with Allรขh;โ€. And โ€œAnyoneโ€ here includes all creatures no matter if they were Messengers, Angels, or good men.

The 5th Dars (class):  

[1st pillar: The Belief in Allรขh ..

The Belief in His Names and Qualities].

Dated 24th of D. Qaadah 1445H๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡ 


Fourth: The Belief in His Names and Qualities.
This means that we should confirm and belief in what Allรขh has stated in His Book (the Qurโ€™รขn) or mentioned through His Messenger (Muhammad r) without changing their meaning or ignoring their meaning or ignoring them completely or twisting the meaning or likening them (giving resemblance). Allรขh Taala said, 
โ€œูˆู„ู„ู‡ ุงู„ุฃุณู…ุงุก ุงู„ุญุณู†ู‰โ€
 - meaning โ€“ {The most beautiful Names belong to Allรขh: so call on Him by them}, and He Taala said, 
โ€œู„ูŠุณ ูƒู…ุซู„ู‡ ุดูŠุกโ€
 - meaning โ€“ โ€œThere is nothing whatever like unto Him, and He is the One that hears and sees (all things)โ€. (Tawhรฎd Al-Asmaโ€™ Was-Sifat).


How to believe in it:
Tawhรฎd Al-Asmaโ€™ Was-Sifat (Islรขmic Monotheism of Allรขhโ€™s Names and Qualities) is to perform Monotheism for Allรขh in His Names and Descriptions, and this should happen by confirming what He has confirmed among Names and Descriptions for Himself in His Book, or what His Messenger has confirmed to Him as well; without any Tahrif (distortion) or Taโ€™til (suspension), or Takyif (adaptation), or Tamthil (likening). 

And what follows are the Rules of Names and Qualities:

First Rule: 
   Names of Allรขh are all Best Names and His descriptions are all Superior and Perfect, He says, โ€œูˆูŽู„ูู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ุงู„ู’ู…ูŽุซูŽู„ู ุงู„ุฃุนู’ู„ูŽู‰โ€ - meaning โ€“ โ€œ..to Allรขh applies the highest similitude.โ€, and He says, โ€œูˆูŽู„ูู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ุงู„ุฃุณู’ู…ูŽุงุกู ุงู„ู’ุญูุณู’ู†ูŽู‰ ููŽุงุฏู’ุนููˆู‡ู ุจูู‡ูŽุงโ€ - meaning โ€“ โ€œThe most beautiful Names belong to Allรขh: so call on Him by themโ€.

Second Rule: 
   Names and Descriptions of Allรขh are all Tawkifiah (suspended in word and meaning as they were descended nothing more and nothing less), and the reference in them is just the Noble Book of Allรขh and the Sunnah; and they are not limited to a certain number, but rather some of them only were known. Allรขh swt  said, โ€œู‚ูู„ู’ ุฅูู†ู‘ูŽู…ูŽุง ุญูŽุฑู‘ูŽู…ูŽ ุฑูŽุจู‘ููŠ ุงู„ู’ููŽูˆูŽุงุญูุดูŽ ู…ูŽุง ุธูŽู‡ูŽุฑูŽ ู…ูู†ู’ู‡ูŽุง ูˆูŽู…ูŽุง ุจูŽุทูŽู†ูŽ ูˆูŽุงู„ุฅุซู’ู…ูŽ ูˆูŽุงู„ู’ุจูŽุบู’ูŠูŽ ุจูุบูŽูŠู’ุฑู ุงู„ู’ุญูŽู‚ู‘ู ูˆูŽุฃูŽู†ู’ ุชูุดู’ุฑููƒููˆุง ุจูุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ู…ูŽุง ู„ูŽู…ู’ ูŠูู†ูŽุฒู‘ูู„ู’ ุจูู‡ู ุณูู„ู’ุทูŽุงู†ู‹ุง ูˆูŽุฃูŽู†ู’ ุชูŽู‚ููˆู„ููˆุง ุนูŽู„ูŽู‰ ุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ู…ูŽุง ู„ุง ุชูŽุนู’ู„ูŽู…ููˆู†ูŽโ€ - meaning โ€“ {Say (O Muhammad ๏ทบ): The things that my Lord has indeed forbidden are: shameful deeds, whether open or secret; sins and trespasses against truth or reason; assigning of partners to Allรขh, for which He has given no authority; and saying things about Allรขh of which you have no knowledge.} And said, โ€œ ูˆูŽู„ุง ุชูŽู‚ู’ูู ู…ูŽุง ู„ูŽูŠู’ุณูŽ ู„ูŽูƒูŽ ุจูู‡ู ุนูู„ู’ู…ูŒ ุฅูู†ู‘ูŽ ุงู„ุณู‘ูŽู…ู’ุนูŽ ูˆูŽุงู„ู’ุจูŽุตูŽุฑูŽ ูˆูŽุงู„ู’ููุคูŽุงุฏูŽ ูƒูู„ู‘ู ุฃููˆู’ู„ูŽุฆููƒูŽ ูƒูŽุงู†ูŽ ุนูŽู†ู’ู‡ู ู…ูŽุณู’ุฆููˆู„ุงโ€ - meaning โ€“ {And pursue not that of which you has no knowledge; for every act of hearing, or of seeing, or of (feeling in) the heart will be inquired into (on the Day of Reckoning)}.

Third Rule:
   It is forbidden to confirm a Name or a Description to Allรขh by likening, for Allรขh swt said, โ€œู„ูŽูŠู’ุณูŽ ูƒูŽู…ูุซู’ู„ูู‡ู ุดูŽูŠู’ุกูŒ ูˆูŽู‡ููˆูŽ ุงู„ุณู‘ูŽู…ููŠุนู ุงู„ุจูŽุตููŠุฑูโ€ - meaning โ€“ {There is nothing whatever like unto Him, and He is the All-Seer All-Hearer)}, and He said, โ€œููŽู„ุง ุชูŽุถู’ุฑูุจููˆุง ู„ูู„ู‘ูŽู‡ู ุงู„ุฃู…ู’ุซูŽุงู„ูŽ ุฅูู†ู‘ูŽ ุงู„ู„ู‘ูŽู‡ูŽ ูŠูŽุนู’ู„ูŽู…ู ูˆูŽุฃูŽู†ู’ุชูู…ู’ ู„ุง ุชูŽุนู’ู„ูŽู…ููˆู†ูŽโ€ - meaning โ€“ {Invent not similitudes for Allรขh: for Allรขh knows, and you know not}.
Likewise, it is forbidden to deny a Name or a Description to Allรขh which is already found in the Qurโ€™รขn or in the Sunnah because this is Ishrak (Polytheism) with Allรขh and Taateel (suspension) to His Names and Descriptions, the matter that leads to distort Divine Scriptures, or may lead to its denial and assimilation of Allรขh with His creatures.

Fourth Rule:
   The meanings of Allรขhโ€™s Names and Descriptions are well known but no body knows their manner of action except Allรขh. Allรขh ๏‰ said, โ€œูˆูŽู„ุง ูŠูุญููŠุทููˆู†ูŽ ุจูู‡ู ุนูู„ู’ู…ู‹ุงโ€ - meaning โ€“ {But they shall not compass it with their knowledge}.

Fifth Rule:
   Similarity of names does not mean at all the similarity of the named. This is because Allรขh has named Himself with Names, which could be applied to some of His creatures, and so as to descriptions like hearing and seeing, but not the hearer is like the Hearer and not the seer is like the Perceiver.
