Iman e Mufassal & Iman e Mujammal

Introduction

At the early age of children, Muslim parents teach them six kalmas. Except these, Iman e Mufassal and Iman e Mujmal are the two concepts/kalmas that are very important in the fulfillment of our Aqeeda e Islam. Iman stands for faith. Although faith is a basic concept, it has deep significance. Moreover,we practice Islam, and the central tenet of Islam is Iman. A Muslim’s belief system is based on these pillars (Iman e Mufassal and Iman e Mujammal) of aqeedah, which make them significant in Islam, instruct Muslims in their daily deeds and moral choices, and aid them in living a meaningful and purposeful life.

Iman e Mufassal

The name “Iman-e-Mufassal” comes from the Arabic word “mufassal,” which means elaborated or extended.Besides, It alludes to the acceptance of the six pillars of Islam as given in the hadith e Jibreel.These six pillars of faith consist of faith in Allah, angels, revealed divined books, prophets, the Day of Judgement, the Divine plan (Qadr) and life after death. Dua Iman e Muffasal  and iman e Mujamal, also known as iman ki siftain. For Muslims, Kalma Iman-e-Mufassal is an essential Islamic value that is extremely important.Iman e mufassal in Arabic text:

  ؕ اٰمَنْتُ بِاللہِ وَمَلٰئِکَتِہٖ وَ کُتُبِہٖ وَرُسُلِہٖ وَالْیَوْمِ الْاٰخِرِ وَالْقَدْرِ خَیْرِہٖ وَشَرِّہٖ مِنَ اللہِ تَعَالٰی وَالْبَعْثِ بَعْدَالْمَوْتِ

Iman-e-Mufassal’s meaning in english is ”I believe in Allah عزوجل, His Angels, His (revealed) Books, His Prophets علیھم السلام, the Day of Judgement, and (I believe that) good or bad Taqdeer( destiny )is from Allah عزوجل and (I believe that) a revival of life after death.”

Six piliars of Iman (Faith)

A Muslim’s religion consists of accepting the six pillars of Iman (faith) as true in general. Those six faiths (Iman e Mufassal and Iman e Mujammal) are as follows:

1. Conviction of Allah SWT’s existence and unity.
2. Conviction of angels’ existence.
3. Belief in the existence of  all Divine Books.
4. Belief in the existence of prophets, the last of whom was Muhammad SAW.
5. Belief that the Day of Judgement will come.
6. Belief in the reality of God’s omniscience and predestination (Qadar, or “Divine Decree”), whether it be for good or evil.

The Holy Quran states that people who reject these pillars of belief are deemed to be disbelievers by Allah.

Iman e Mujamal

Features of faith are summed up in the meaning of Mujmal. Iman e Mujmal dua, also known as the concise faith, refers to the basics of belief in Islam.The entire system of Islamic beliefs is based on these cornerstone principles.Iman-e-Mujmal the brief declaration, is composed of two main claims that establish Allah’s unity and Muhammad’s prophetic status. To be regarded as a member of the Islamic community, all Muslims must adhere to these principles. A simplified version of Iman-e-Mufassal, known as Iman-e-Mujamal, is sometimes used when someone is unable to recite the full form. Mostly, Muslims recite Iman-e-Mujmal in its condensed form during the Tashahhad.Iman e Mujamal in Arabic text:

 اٰمَنْتُ بِاللہِ کَمَا ھُوَ بِاَسْمَآئِہٖ وَصِفَاتِہٖ وَقَبِلْتُ جَمِیْعَ اَحْکَامِہٖ اِقْرَارٌم بِاللِّسَانِ وَتَصْدِیْقٌ بِالْقَلْبِ

Iman e Mujamal in english is I believe in Allah عزوجل,  as He is, with His names and attributes, and I accept all His judgments, with acknowledgment with the tongue and belief in the heart.
