Islam is not just a religion, Islam is way of life. The meaning of that is when we become a muslim, all of our life was controlled by Islam rules.
This rules was revealed to prophet Muhammad SAW 1400 years ago from Allah The Almighty, Allah SWT. It was revealed through Jibril for almost 23 years.
There were two basics of Islam, it’s the fundamental sources of Islam and it can’t separated each other. They are the holy Qur’an and AlHadits. If you separate one of them, than you’ll never know the real Islam. You’ll never understanding the holy Qur’an except through understanding hadist from Rasulullah SAW.
You can’t translate the Qur’an with only your logics, Qur’an has lot of meanings than beyond our logics, it’s from the God, and our logics it’s nothing compare God. Our mind has corrupted with passion of this world, difference with Rasulullah mind’s which always guided by Allah.
Islam believe that everyone is born pure, there is no sins. Allah give us choice to be good or bad person, it just which one that we’ll choose.
If we choose to admit that there is no God except Allah The Almighty and Muhammad is Rasulullah then it’s the great gift from Allah to us. It’ s better than the whole world. Ifu choose the other, just prepare to accept the Divine punishment.
Islam was build on five pillars. The first pillar was syahadah. We must admit that there is no God except Allah The Almighty and Muhammad is Rasulullah. It was the fundamental of Islam, eventhough you did a good things ( ibadah) it was count nothing in the Qiyamah if you don’t syahadah.
The second pillar is sholat, it was the main ibadah in Islam. We must do it five times a day, one of it purpose is to clean our soul and body everyday. The third pillar is fasting ( shaum ). It was obligated every year in month Ramadhan, the fourth is zakat, it purposes was to clean up our property from the other’s right and to make balancing between the wealthy dan the poor.
The fifth is haji, haji is obligation to every muslim that have money dan power to do it. We just need do it once but we can do it again. But if we do repeat without considering the other muslim who was suffering in the other countries like in Palestina, Iraq, Philippines, Thailand, and Afghanistan it can be a sin for us.
Muslim is not an individual people, there is a hadist said that eventhough we sholat with khusyu’ but our neighbourgh is in hunger, our sholat will not accepted by Allah. That’s just letting neighbourg henger, how if letting our brother dying????
To become is muslim so easy, just say Asyhadu alla ilaaha illallah, wa asyhadu anna muhammadar rasululllah.
In the end is just your choice, isn’t
