0:09
Comprehensiveness and perfection
0:12
Religion encompasses the creedal, the devotional, and the behavioral aspects
0:18
None of these aspects are separable from the others
0:21
because it is from Allah, the Almighty, the All-Knowing, the All-Aware
0:25
The One who knows what was and what will be
0:28
and what is beneficial for His servants in this world and the Hereafter, so He legislates it for them
0:33
and what is harmful to them, so He forbids it from them
0:36
and this is in every time and place
0:39
so it came as comprehensive for all that they need
0:42
taking into consideration their human nature and their capacity
0:47
Allah the Almighty says
0:49
“There is not an animal in the earth, nor a flying creature flying on two wings, but they are peoples like unto you. We have neglected nothing in the Book (of Our decrees). Then unto their Lord they will be gathered.” (6:38)
0:53
And He, Glorified, says
0:55
“Forbidden unto you (for food) are carrion and blood and swineflesh, and that which hath been dedicated unto any other than Allah, and the strangled, and the dead through beating, and the dead through falling from a height, and that which hath been killed by (the goring of) horns, and the devoured of wild beasts, saving that which ye make lawful (by the death-stroke), and that which hath been immolated unto idols. And (forbidden is it) that ye swear by the divining arrows. This is an abomination. This day are those who disbelieve in despair of (ever harming) your religion; so fear them not, fear Me! This day have I perfected your religion for you and completed My favour unto you, and have chosen for you as religion al-Islam. Whoso is forced by hunger, not by will, to sin: (for him) lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.” (5:3)
1:03
Islam is an integrated system
1:06
its texts, directives, and laws all work in unity
1:11
and it is not taken in parts and pieces
1:14
and it establishes its systems to all work at the same time
1:19
so they become complete and harmonious
1:21
