 • AQIDAH
• Aqidah: governs the principles of faith and belief in
Islam. It is derived from the word aqad which means
tie or knot. Aqidah from an Islamic point of view
means strong beliefs in the heart of the person to
Allah the Almighty and His Prophet, Muhammad
p.b.u.h.

• Aqidah :is the main foundation in Islam and a starting

point in order to be a good muslim. It is reflected in
the activities conducted by the prophet. Prophet
Muhammad describes Islam as a building whereby its
foundation is Aqidah.
 AQIDAH
• 1. Godliness Unity (Ilahiyyah)
• 2. Prophecy Unity (Nubuwah)
• 3. Metaphysics Unity (Ruhaniyyah)
• 4. Hearing Unity(sam’iyyat)

building

Without strong foundation/base, the building cannot

be build and cannot stand on its own

Aqidah is considered the foundation that can

support the development of an Islamic institution.

• Abdul Karim Zaidan defined Shariah “as the path of religion and the
various aspects of laws (al-ahkam) which Allah provides for his
servants, i.e. human”.

teachings, and values governing the lives of Muslims. However,
these rules and regulations, contrary to how they are often
described by many non-Muslims, cover every aspect of life.
Shari`ah embraces worship, morals, individual attitude and
conduct, as well as the political, social, economic, criminal, and
civil spheres
