Study Notes

Nawaqid ul Islam

  • A short treatise outlining 10 actions that nullify a person's Islam.
  • The 10 actions are not the only ways to nullify Islam.
  • The treatise aims to caution individuals against these actions, not to declare others non-Muslims.
  • Ibn Umar narrated a hadith from the Prophet (Peace be upon him): If someone calls their brother a disbeliever, either the speaker or the recipient of the accusation might become a disbeliever, depending on the truthfulness of the accusation.

About the Author

  • Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab (died 1792 CE/1206 AH).
  • His father was a scholar.
  • Became knowledgeable in hadith and Quran before the age of 10.
  • Born in Najd, Saudi Arabia.
  • Traveled to Makkah and Iraq to acquire further knowledge.

Why 10 Nullifiers?

  • These are the most common and dangerous ways to nullify Islam.
  • Using a number ten is a common and simple way to teach.
  • The Prophet (Peace be upon him) used numbers to explain teachings.
  • The Prophet (Peace be upon him) warned against seven major sins.

First Nullifier: Shirk

  • Associating partners with Allah in worship.
  • The evidence comes from the Quran.
  • Performing sacrifices for Jinn or graves is a form of shirk.
  • Major shirk removes a person from Islam, and minor shirk only removes that particular action.
  • Major Shirk actions always lead to eternal hellfire.
  • Minor shirk actions are subject to Allah's judgement; they may enter heaven after any punishment.
  • Knowing how to identify major vs minor is through studying and learning.

Definition of Shirk

  • Giving any of Allah's rights to other than Allah.

Differences between Major and Minor Shirk

  • Major Shirk exits a person from Islam; minor shirk affects the specific action.
  • In major shirk, all of the person's deeds are invalidated; the blood and wealth become permissible.
  • Minor shirk only invalidates the specific action.
  • Only Allah can decide if someone commits minor or major shirk.

How to Identify Shirk

  • Learning and understanding the concept.
  • Recognizing when shirk actions begin with "Alif Lam" they are more severe, major shirk.

Muharrammat of Islam

  • Four types of prohibitions in Islam.
  • Shirk (worst of the worst)
  • Minor shirk
  • Major sins (Kabhiir)
  • Minor sins are still sinful and disobey Allah.

Hidden Shirk

  • The prophet Muhammad (PBUH) spoke about the danger of hidden shirk.
  • Examples are when someone prays in a way to impress others, rather than to serve Allah.

Worship

  • A comprehensive expression of Allah's love, encompassing any form of speech or action that pleases Allah.
  • Three types of slaughter: for Allah, for permissible reasons( such as for guests), or for other than Allah (major shirk).

Second Nullifier

  • Placing intermediaries between humans and Allah (seeking intercession or reliance on them).
  • This is a form of shirk.
  • Emphasizing the importance of direct worship of Allah; this is a common shirk, and the Quran rejects this practice.
  • A rejection of the Islamic belief in the oneness of Allah.

Calling Upon Allah Alone

  • A direct instruction from Allah to call upon Him.
  • Responses and answers to prayers.
  • Importance of obedience and faith in Allah.
  • The Quran calls people to worship Allah alone and to never worship others, and be humble.

Third Nullifier

  • Failing to recognize disbelievers (kaafir) as having disbelieved
  • Doubting the belief of those who are disbelievers.
  • The importance of acknowledging Allah's messengers and their teachings in determining belief.
  • Recognizing the necessity of believing Allah and His prophet's pronouncements.
  • Acknowledging and accepting Allah's judgement in regards to beliefs.

Fourth Nullifier

  • Believing that any one's judgement is more important than the Prophet's judgement.
  • Preferring the judgement of false deities over the Prophet's.
  • Underscoring the importance of the prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) guidance and teachings.

Third Nullifier - Correcting Methodology

  • Methods for Muslims to use to be able to tell whether they need to accept and follow a belief, or reject it.
  • Muslims need to follow the teachings of the Prophet (PBUH) since only these beliefs can lead to salvation.
  • Avoid unifying different religions.

Fifth Nullifier

  • Hating or rejecting something the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) presented.
  • Importance of accepting and following the Prophet's guidance.

Sixth Nullifier

  • Ridiculing Allah's religion, its rewards, or punishments.
  • Examples of ridicule is mocking religious practices or beliefs, or by making jokes about Islamic values
  • Punishments for those who mock others beliefs, values or religions.
  • Importance of respect and reverance for Allah's teachings, religion and messengers.
  • The seriousness and importance of accepting the Prophet's teachings.
