Om RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS IN ISLAM
There are well-established public and
private rights in the Islamic society. In the
section below we will highlight the most
important public and private rights in the
Islamic law and teachings:
RIGHTS
AND OBLIGATIONS
IN ISLAM
01 Rights of Almighty God
02 Rights of the Prophet Muhammad ¿¿¿¿
03 Rights of other Prophets and Messengers
04 Rights of Parents
05 Rights of Husband towards His Wife
06 Rights of Wife towards Her Husband
07 Rights of Children
08 Rights of Relatives
The essential right of man towards God is
to worship Him alone, setting up no rivals
or partners with Him, nor attributing any
sons or daughters to Him. The eternal truth
of all existence is that LA ILAHA ILLAALLAH:
"there is nothing worthy of being
worshipped except God," meaning that
there is no so-called "god", deity, or entity
worthy of worship and absolute obedience
except for the One Creator. This is the
testimony of faith of a Muslim that involves
the following requirements:
1. God alone deserves to be worshiped
and obeyed in an absolute sense. None
has the right to be worshiped along
with or besides Him. All statements,
acts and hidden intentions must agree
with what the Almighty has designated.
All actions of man must be performed
for the Pleasure of the Almighty.
2. A Muslim is required to believe in the
Names and Attributes that God has
given Himself, or those attributed to Him
through revelation by His Prophet and
Messenger ¿¿¿¿. No one may attribute any
name or quality to God by speculation
that neither God nor His Prophet and
Messenger have attributed to Him. He
must not offer any undue explanation,
similitude thereof, or express an opinion
concerning these Names and Attributes
of God. God the Exalted says in the
"There is nothing like unto Him, and He is
the All-Hearer, the All-Seer." [42:11]
3. Man must submit himself to God,
in faith with total and sincere belief,
declaring with his tongue, accepting
with his heart and showing with his
actions the truth of the statement that
"So know, [O Muhammad], that there is
no deity except Allah and ask forgiveness
for your sin and for the believing men and
believing women. And Allah knows of your
movement and your resting place." [47:19]
4. Human beings are obligated to give
full and total submission to the Will of
God. This is based on the instruction
is not for a believing man or a believing
woman, when Allah and His Messenger
have decided a matter, that they should
[thereafter] have any choice about their
affair. And whoever disobeys Allah and
His Messenger has certainly strayed
into clear error." [33:36]
