What Must be Known about Islam in Belief, Worshiping and Morals
"A comprehensive and simplified guide specifically designed to introduce new Muslims and non-Arabic speakers to the foundations of Islam. The book bridges the three pillars of the faith: sound belief (Aqeedah), daily acts of worship (such as prayer, Zakat, fasting, and Hajj) and Islamic and social morals. This makes it an essential reference for any Muslim seeking to correct their acts of worship and understand their religion through a clear, accessible approach derived directly from the Quran and Sunnah."
This book serves as a comprehensive educational guide and an essential reference needed by every Muslim living in non-Arabic speaking communities, specifically Chinese-speaking communities. It stems from a noble objective focused on simplifying Islamic knowledge and making it accessible to the general public and new converts through a smooth, uncomplicated approach. The book structures its comprehensive content across three main pillars that shape a Muslim's educational foundation. It begins with the pillar of Belief and Monotheism (Aqeedah), highlighting the perfection of Islamic Sharia and answering fundamental questions regarding the Three Principles: knowing one's Lord, religion, and the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. It explains the levels of religion (Islam, Imaan, and Ihsan), the Six Pillars of Faith, the implications of the testimony "There is no god but Allah," and how to safeguard monotheism while avoiding all forms of polytheism. The book then smoothly transitions to The Jurisprudence of Worship (Fiqh of Ibadat) to clarify practical rulings and daily or seasonal duties. This starts with the rulings of purification (ablution, ritual bath, dry ablution, and purification for the sick) and details the rulings of prayer, the virtue of congregational prayer, the Adhan, and Iqbal, alongside special prayers like those for travel, fear, Friday, the two Eids, eclipses, and rain. It also covers the rulings of Zakat and its beneficiaries, the jurisprudence of fasting Ramadan, and the rituals of Hajj and Umrah along with the associated rulings of sacrifices. Finally, the book dedicates a distinct space to The Prophet's Biography, Morals, and Family Matters, offering a brief glimpse into the life and manners of the Prophet ﷺ to serve as a role model. It provides a comprehensive review of the prohibitions that must be avoided to protect the individual and society, while highlighting the foundations of building a stable Muslim family through the rulings of engagement, marriage, marital rights and duties, the status of women in Islam, and specific jurisprudential rulings for women, ultimately shaping a balanced Muslim personality that combines firm belief, correct worship and high morals in daily life.
