Understanding worship in Islam
We should worship Allah:
- As He wanted.
- As his beloved described and did.
- As the companions (May Allah be satisfied with them all) followed.
This is the worship Allah mentioned in the Koran and informed us that He created us to do it, he said:
"And I (Allah) created not the jinn and humans except they should worship Me (Alone). I seek not any provision from them (i.e. provision for themselves or for My creatures) nor do I ask that they should feed Me (i.e. feed themselves or My creatures)." (Surat Al-Thareyat, verses 56 - 57)
Let's read together some lines of the prescription of actual worship which can make our manners as the manners of the Koran and the way of the beloved prophet (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). Sayeda A'isha was asked about the manners of the prophet, she said:
"Don't you read the Koran?" He said: "Yes." She said: "His manners were the Koran." In another narration, she said: "His manners were the Koran, pleased for its pleasure and become discontented for its dissatisfaction."
The actual worship for a believer means to worship Allah by His book in his work and to execute the practical side from the book of Allah in his field. He should also do well and innovate in his work; Allah (glory to Him) inspires His true servants if they followed His orders in this religion
The actual worship is that makes the believer only a servant for Allah not for others, so it gives the believer dignity and protection, because the book of Allah wants the believer to be honorable, Allah says:
"Honor, power and glory belong to Allah, His Messenger (Muhammad), and to the believers." (Surat Al-Monafekoon, verse 8)
How could he be honorable while what we speak in is made by them, what we sits on is made by them, the printing shop that prints our books is made by them and its ink is imported from them, everything we wear is from their factories, the glasses, watches, clothes….etc, where is the book of our God?
The actual worship is that about which your greatest messenger (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) says:
"There are sins not be forgiven by Salat, nor by Seyam, nor by Hajj nor by Omrah." They said: "What forgives them O messenger of Allah?" He said: "The solicitudes in getting provision."
A believer works to be honorable among his brothers by Allah, and the whole Islamic society becomes honorable by Allah among the whole world.
I'll read another line from the prescription to you, listen O my brothers, Allah said to us all:
"And say (O Muhammad) "Do deeds! Allah will see your deeds, and (so will) His Messenger and the believers. And you will be brought back to the All-Knower of the unseen and the seen. Then He will inform you of what you used to do."
(Surat At'Tawbah, verse 105)
The actual worship, means to follow each verse in the book of Allah, because each verse in the book of Allah is a plea for or against you, if you fulfill it, it is for you and it will intercede for you at the day when you meet Allah, but if you don't follow it, it is against you at the day when you meet Allah, because reckoning at the day of judgment will be by the Koran, the Koran will be brought then the nation of the Koran will be reckoned in front of Allah, not on reciting the Koran but on following the Koran.
The actual worship is to make the book of Allah control all your life and to make it your imam in all your movements and stillness, because there is not a small or a big thing but it mentioned and clarified. Know that Allah sanctifies this nation, blesses its provisions, reform its youths and protects its women as long as they respect the Koran and make it controlling all fields of their lives.
The actual worship is even in asking a question, if you are going to do something and don't know its way in the Koran, you should go to the people of remembrance, scholars and wise people and ask them about the opinion of the Koran in this matter to follow the orders of Allah because Allah didn't leave anything to confuse them as long as they are following the words of Allah.
The actual worship is also in thinking and contemplation, all Muslims should think and worship Allah by discovering his read book in ourselves and in the world around us. I saw Muslims during performing Omrah are crowded to recite the Koran and worship Allah, I said to them:
O Muslims, who made the rosary we use to glorify Allah? Who made the carpet on which we pray? Who determine the times of prayers for you? Who made the telescope to look beyond your sight? Who made the alternative teeth for you? Who made the medicines to treat you?
This is what we should read in the book of Allah. The book of Allah is both that we read in the copy of the holy Koran and that we read in the universe and this is what Allah The Generous and The Creator ordered us to live and discover. See what Allah says:
"We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this (the Koran) is the truth."
(Surat Fos'selat, verse 53)
Our sir Abdullah Ibn Masood said:
"The messenger of Allah (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) only left us after he mentioned us knowledge about every bird flying in the sky by its wings."
What has happened to us? Even the medical aims of the acts of worship are discovered to us by the enemies of Allah, The Lord of mankind, they mentioned aims for Salat, sportive aims from doing bowing, prostrating and standing and medical aims from doing ablution and purification before it and standing in front of Allah five times at fixed times, we perform prayers to worship Allah and are contented with this and we think that we do what Allah wants from us, Allah says about the understanding believers:
"Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding."
(Surat Ala-Imran, verse 190)
Who are they O our Lord?
"Those who remember Allah (always, and in prayers) standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides,"
Only this? No.
"And think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth,"
(Surat Aala-Imran, verse 191)
O Allah grant us Your grace by awakening Muslims from their inattention and sleep. O Allah draw our attention, our sons', our daughters' and the people of our generation to what is in the book of Allah to make us follow its guidance and apply it in this life and grant us from your grace to make us not to need all unbelievers and polytheists, enemies of Allah and we beg You not to make any unbeliever to control any weak Muslim O Lord of mankind.
