Islam teaches that each one the prophets of God – together with Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad (peace be upon all of them) taught mainly the similar faith: specifically, to worship the One True God and lead a life of obedience to His commandments.
This is what Islam stands for. And because of this, Muslims think about all the true prophets of God as prophets of Islam; and all of them preached to their folks the similar message.
The story of our first mother and father Adam and Eve narrated in the Bible is additionally recounted in the Quran, which was the noble Book revealed as the Last Testament of God; that is, as the perfected type of the Guidance of God, which had been progressively revealed by means of the earlier scriptures similar to the Torah and the Gospel.
Both Christians and Muslims are united in the perception that Adam – the father of mankind – was misled by Satan to disobey God and to eat the forbidden fruit, and consequently God expelled him and his progeny from Paradise.
Muslims consider that Adam quickly after the act of disobedience turned conscious of the seriousness of his sin and repented. He sought the forgiveness of God, and God forgave him (Quran 2:35-37).
Distinct from the narration in the Quran, the Christians maintain the perception that God didn’t forgive Adam’s sin and for that purpose all the youngsters of Adam until the End of Times would bear the blemish of that sin.
This is what they name “Original Sin”, and this sin is not going to be forgiven in keeping with them, aside from these youngsters of Adam who consider that God despatched His “only-begotten son” to vicariously undergo and die on the cross as expiation for that sin.
Muslims don’t settle for that there is something known as unique sin. They strongly reject the thought of God begetting a son for this goal: God is one and one solely; He doesn’t beget, nor is He begotten; and there is nobody like God.
Sin, from the level of view of Islam, is a aware and willful act that violates a commandment of God or the proper of a fellow being. We can’t think about an individual to be a sinner if she or he acts underneath duress or out of ignorance, as a result of human accountability is an vital side of justice as envisaged in Islam.
And nobody will be actually held accountable for an motion he has no energy to keep away from. Because, God doesn’t lay extra burden on a human than she or he can bear.
Islam teaches that sin is an avoidable act that harms the perpetrator’s personal soul. This implies that there is no innate or inherited nature that prompts an individual to disobey God. That is to say, it is an individual’s free alternative whether or not to sin or not; and one’s disposition to sin is solely as a lot as, if not lower than, their inclination to do good.
One vital educating of Islam as taught by the Prophet is this narration: “Deeds are but by intentions and every person shall have what he intended.” (Al-Bukhari and Muslim). This implies that an individual’s motive must be considered once we choose his or her actions. And we all know that motive is one thing that is in the thoughts of the folks and even when they discuss why they’ve acted in a specific approach, now we have no means of verifying their declare.
Therefore, solely God Almighty will be the Judge of our beliefs and actions; and therefore He is described in the Quran as “the Owner of the Day of Judgment.”
Moreover, Islam teaches that associating something or anyone with Almighty God is the largest sin; and all different sins could also be forgiven if we provide honest repentance and does rather a lot of good deeds with religion in God. The good deeds wipe out the unhealthy ones. The door of repentance is all the time open, and the Almighty Allah will settle for the repentance till we die.
