نبذة نيل وفرات:Islam is a complete way of life, and as such it addresses every aspect of human life ranging from personal and family matters to social, economic, political, and spiritual issues. The teachings of Islam are devised, therefore, to enable mankind attain prosperity in this life and in the hereafter. ...
As part of the measures to attain that prosperity, an adult Muslim needs to conduct his or her affairs according to the teachings of Islam and behave and respond accordingly in all aspects of life. Those issues and affairs range from matters concerning acts of worship to other matters such as family, culture, current affairs, financial transactions, etiquettes, and ethics.
An adult Muslim thus has a duty to learn the teachings of Islam on those issues that he or she might come across in life. Some of those teachings may be readily available, and if not, he or she must learn or seek the answer to one’s queries.
Although every conduct that an adult Muslim performs according to the teachings of Islam constitutes an act of worship, no matter what aspect of life it may concern, traditionally by ‘acts of worship’ it is meant issues such as ritual cleanliness, the obligatory daily prayers, fasting, the hajj pilgrimage, zakah or the Islamic tax, was well as the Islamic doctrine (‘aqa’id).
Acts of Worship or ‘ibadat, as referred to in Arabic, regulate the individual’s association with his Creator, while mo’amalat, which is the term used to refer to such issues as contrasts, deals, or mutual agreements such as trade, lease, loan, and marriage regulate the individual’s relationship with others.
Islam gives significant importance to these two categories of relationships, and in order that mankind is aware of his duties and responsibilities before his creator and with respect to his fellow human beings, Islam lays down detailed laws to regulate those relationships.
