TEN THINGS WHICH NULLIFY ONES ISLAM
1. Associating partners with Allah (shirk). Allah
Most High says (in the meaning ):
"Truly, whosoever
sets up partners with Allah, then Allah has forbidden the Garden for him, and
the Fire will be his abode. And for the wrongdoers there are no helpers." (Soorah Al-Maaida 5:72)
Calling upon the dead,
asking their help, or offering them gifts or sacrifices are all forms of shirk.
2. Setting up intermediaries between oneself and
Allaah, making supplication to them, asking their intercession with Allah, and
placing ones trust in them is unbelief (kufr).
3. Anyone who does not consider the polytheists
(mushrikeen) to be unbelievers, or who has doubts concerning their unbelief, or
considers their way to be correct, is himself/herself an unbeliever (kafir).
4. Anyone who believes any guidance to be more
perfect, or a decision other than the Prophets decision to be better, is an
unbeliever. This applies to those who prefer the rule of Evil (Taghout) to the
Prophets rule. Some examples of this are:
(a) To believe that
systems and laws made by human beings are better than the Shariah of Islaam;
for example,
That the Islamic system
is not suitable for the twentieth century.
That Islam is the cause
of the backwardness of the Muslims.
Or that al-Islam is a
relationship between Allah and the Muslim. It should not interfere in other
aspects of life.
(b)To say that enforcing
the punishments prescribed by Allah, such as cutting of
the hand of the thief or the stoning of an adulterer, is not suitable for this
day and age.
(c) To believe that it
is permissible to give a rule from that which Allah did not reveal in Islamic
transactions or matters of law, punishments or other affairs. Although one may
not believe such things to be superior to the Shariah he in effect affirms such
a stand by declaring a thing which Allah has totally prohibited, such as
adultery, drinking alcohol or usury, to be permissible. According to the
consensus of the Muslims, one who declares such things to be permissible is an
unbeliever (Kafir)
5. Anyone who hates any part of what the Messenger
of Allah [saw] has declared to be lawful has nullified his Islam, even though
he may act in accordance with it. Allaah Most High says(in the meaning):
"This is because
they hate what Allah has sent down, so he has made their deeds fruitless" (Surah Muhammad 47:9)
6. Anyone who ridicules any aspect of the religion
of the Messenger of Allah [saw], or any of its rewards or punishments, becomes
an unbeliever. Allah Most High says (in the meaning):
"Say: Was it
Allah, and His signs and His Messenger that you were mocking? Make no excuse;
you have disbelieved after you had believed." (Surah At-Tawbah 9:65-66)
7. The practice of magic. Included in this, for
example, is causing a rift between a husband and wife by turning his love for
her into hatred, or tempting a person to do things he dislikes using black
arts. One who engages in such a thing or is pleased with it is outside the fold
of Islam. Allah Most High says (in the meaning):
" But neither of
these two (angels, Harut and Marut) taught anyone (magic) till they had said,
Indeed, we are a trial; then do not disbelieve. (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:102)
8. Supporting and aiding polytheists against the Muslims.
Allah Most High says (in
the meaning):
"Whoever among
you who takes them as allies is surely one of them. Truly, Allaah does not
guide the wrongdoers." (Surah Al-Maaida 5:51)
9. Anyone who believes that some people are
permitted to deviate from the Shariah of Muhammad [saw] is an unbeliever by the
word of Allah Most High (in the meaning):
"And whoever
seeks a religion other than Islam, it will not be accepted of him, and in the
hereafter he will be from among the losers." (Surah Aal-Imraan 3:85)
10. To turn completely away from the religion of
Allaah neither learning its precepts nor acting upon it. Allah most high says
(what means):
" And who does
greater wrong than he who is reminded of the revelations of his Lord and turns
aside there from Truly, We shall exact retribution from the guilty."
(Soorah As-Sajdah 32:22)
and He [swt] also says
(what means):
"But those who
disbelieve turn away from that about which they are warned."
It makes no difference
whether such violations are commuted as a joke, in seriousness or out of fear,
except when done under compulsion (i.e. from threat of loss of life )We seek
refuge in Allaah from such deeds as entail His wrath and severe punishment.
