Basic Beliefs

1. Belief in the Oneness of God

There is One God, Supreme and Eternal, Creator and Provider, Who is Merciful and Compassionate. God has neither father nor mother, and no sons or daughters. God has never fathered anyone, nor was He fathered. God has no equals. He is God of all humankind, not of a special tribe, race, or group of people. He is the God of all races and colours, of believers and unbelievers alike. God is Mighty and Supreme, yet is also very near to pious, thoughtful believers, answering their prayers and helping them. God asks us to know Him, to love Him, and to follow His Law, for our own benefit and salvation.

2. Belief in the Angels of God

God created angels to obey His commands and worship Him tirelessly. Angels are pure and spiritually obedient beings.

3. Belief in the Revelations (Books) of God

Muslims believe in the Revelations sent by Almighty God to His Prophets and Messengers, including the Qur’an, the Torah, the Gospel, the Scrolls of Abraham and the Psalms of David.

4. Belief in the Prophets of God

Messengers and Prophets of God like Noah, Moses, Solomon, Jesus, and Muhammad (Peace Be Upon them All) were mortal humans endowed with Divine Revelations and appointed by God to teach humankind about obeying His Laws.

5. Belief in the Day of Judgment

Muslims believe in the appointed Day of Judgment and in Heaven and Hell.

6. Belief in Premeasurement (Qadar)

Muslims believe God knows and controls everything that exists in all time and space.

7. Belief in Resurrection after Death

After the world ends, Muslims believe that all people who have died will be resurrected in order to face the Judgment to each of them by Almighty God.
