Here is a more detailed explanation of each of the Seven Fundamental Beliefs of Islam:
1. Belief in one God (Allah) and that Muhammad is his prophet: Muslims believe that only one God is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. They also believe that Muhammad is the final prophet of God, who received revelations from God through the angel Gabriel and shared them with the people through the Quran.
2. Belief in the angels of God: Muslims believe angels are spiritual beings created by God to carry out His will. They are seen as beings of light and are believed responsible for communicating God’s messages to prophets and ordinary people.
3. Belief in the revealed scriptures of God: Muslims believe that God has revealed His message to humanity through various prophets throughout history. These revelations have been recorded in holy scriptures, including the Quran, the Torah (revealed to Moses), and the Bible (revealed to Jesus). Muslims believe that the Quran is God’s final and most complete revelation and contains Islam’s eternal message.
4. Belief in the prophets of God: Muslims believe that God has sent prophets to every nation throughout history to guide people towards righteousness and to serve as examples of how to live a righteous life. These prophets include Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, among others. Muslims believe that Muhammad is the final prophet of God and that he completed the message of Islam.
5. Belief in the day of judgment and individual accountability for actions: Muslims believe that every person will be held accountable for their actions when all people are resurrected and judged by God. They believe that each person’s actions in this life will determine their ultimate destination in the afterlife, either paradise or hell.
6. Belief in predestination: Muslims believe God has ordained all events, including those resulting from human choice or free will. They believe God has full knowledge of all that will happen and that everything occurs according to His plan.
7. Belief in the existence of an afterlife: Muslims believe in an afterlife in which people will be rewarded or punished based on their actions in this life. They believe that the souls of the righteous will go to paradise, a place of great joy and pleasure, while the souls of the wicked will go to hell, a place of suffering and torment.
