The Six Articles of Faith
The Six Articles of Faith
Faith (iman) breaks down into six axioms:
1. Belief in the existence and oneness of God (Allah).
2. Belief in the existence of angels.
3. Belief in the existence of the books of which God is the author: the Quran (revealed to Muhammad PBUH), the Gospel (revealed to Jesus PBUH), the Torah (revealed to Moses PBUH), and Psalms (revealed to David PBUH).
4. Belief in the existence of all Prophets: Muhammad (PBUH) being the last of them, Jesus (PBUH) the penultimate, and others sent before them [like Moses, Abraham, David, Joseph, Jacob (PBUT)].
5. Belief in the existence of the Day of Judgment: on that day, humanity will be divided into two groups: that of paradise and that of hell. These groups are themselves composed of subgroups.
6. Belief in the existence of God's predestination, whether it involves good or bad. All Is Allah's Will, The Only Will.
