“AD-DEEN” - usually translated as “the religion” more accurately it should be “a total way of life or a comprehensive system of living”

a Muslim regard his/her entire life as a religious experience. Islam provides for guidance in, not only matters of worship, but as to how he/she is to conduct oneself in daily matters - be it social, economic etc.

Usually translated as “religion” – (borrowed from

the available Western equivalent, but it does not

accurately convey the Arabic significance of this

term).

In Arabic, a word is derived from its tri-lateral

roots (when written has no vowels) which can be

variously pronounced (with vowels and other

emphasis) from a broad semantic field of

meanings possible from this root:

All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2014))

Page 51: [Slideshare] tafaqqahu-(2014)-#1a -introduction-to-module-(16-august-2014)

from root word “daa-na “which can also mean :

“be indebted; to owe one’s thanks; to be

subjected; bow; yield; owe allegiance.”

from “dain ” which means “debt; obligation;

liability.”

from “dai-nuu-na ” which means “judgement; Last

Judgement.”

related to the word “maad-dana ” which means

“to build or found cities to civilise, to refine and to

humanise” from which is derived the word

“tamaddun ” meaning “civilization and refinement

in social culture”

Page 52: [Slideshare] tafaqqahu-(2014)-#1a -introduction-to-module-(16-august-2014)

The primary significations of the term “deen ”

thus can be reduced to four: (1)Indebtedness

(2) Submissiveness/submission/surrender

(3) Judicious power

(4) Natural inclination or tendency

Thus, the implication of “religion ” in the ordinary

usage which tends to be affected by secular

thoughts is not in accord to Islam’s concept of

religion which is life in totality, all-encompassing

and where worldly and heavenly concern cannot

be dichotomised.

A Muslim always is mindful that ultimately he is a

servant of God whether in mosque or in the

market place, in private or in public etc. Life of

this world is intrinsically linked with the Hereafter

(also referred to as ‘Yaum al-Deen’ -The day of

Judgement).All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2014))

When we think of the term ‘FIQH’ we tend to apply what , as commonly

understood to be subject regarding Islamic jurisprudence.

The original – (in Qur’anic and Ahadith) – usage, the term refers to the

“profound understanding of the entire “Deen – al – Islam”

LI- YA –TAFAQ-QAHU – FID- DEEN : “ they could devote themselves to

FAQQAH-HU (profound learning in) studies in religion (Deen) “

Such a learned scholar of Islam is not to be likened with those

academics or intellectuals of today, for they are foremost people who

are always striving to connect themselves with Allah SWT and being

convinced of the Reality (HAQIQAH) that they are forever (FAQIR -

ILALLAAH) in state of poverty before Allah – seeking and beseeching

His Mercy (RAHMAH), Generosity (KARAMAH), Subtle Preservation

(LATAIF) and hoping to Please Allah (MARDHATILLAH), etc.

They are people of Remembrance (AHLUDZ-DZIKR) , the ones who are

not easily distracted by the conundrum or hustle-bustle of the worldly

life which tend to make many people to forget their true purpose for

existing, and the inevitable meeting with their Lord Maker in the

Hereafter.

We have to admit that many of us tend to be complacent, satisfied with

our being a Muslim, priding ourselves as though we have somewhat

contributed (doing a favour) by adding to the numbers of Muslims in

the world.

This is sheer arrogance if devoid of the realization that it is indeed

Allah’s SWT guidance and power that made our being Muslim possible.

We should instead work upon our sense of gratitude (SHAKUR) and

strive to seek knowledge and understanding to reach to a conviction

(YAQEEN) of true believer (MU’-MEEN).

This requires, not merely knowing but acting upon – the responding to

the teaching of Al-Islam – which permeates every facets of our life.

This (our responding) , is the true LIFE – according to Allah SWT.

Allah SWT even highlighted one of the most important favour for us to

be grateful for, to rejoice, to appreciate its true value and strive in our

entire life to celebrate and live up to – i.e. to refer to His sending our

Prophet Muhammad s.a.a.w. as the EDUCATOR par excellence.

And the nature of EDUCATION of the DEEN is troughout our whole life.

Note: It even stipulates the proper approaches – (which alludes to

ADAB), and the ultimate attainment is in the learning of the KITAB (Al-

Qur’an) and AL-HIKMAH (the Prophetic Wisdom).

Although HIKMAH is referring to Sunnah An-Nabawwiyyah, yet the

Qur’anic usage of the term AL-HIKMAH must be profoundly

understood, not relegated simplistically to be mere learning or quoting

of Qur’an, Ahadith and As-Sunnah alone.
