  • Requirement Of Shariah For Purification

    Posted by Sameer Namole on January 27, 2022 at 5:52 am

    The objective of Religion is said to be Purification.

    And it is said that for this same objective shariah has been revealed.

    So is purification compulsory or ‘purification by following shariah’ is compulsory?

    I mean what if someone attains moral purification without following shari’ah.

    I’m quoting a paragraph from English version of Meezan: (chapter 2 page number 191)

    [After faith, the second important requirement of religion is purification of morals. This means that a person should cleanse his attitude both towards his creator and towards his fellow human beings. This is what is termed as a righteous deed. All the sharī‘ah is its corollary. With the change and evolution in societies and civilizations, the sharī‘ah has indeed changed; however faith and righteous deeds, which are the foundations of religion, have not undergone any change. The Qur’ān is absolutely clear that any person who brings forth these two things before the Almighty on the Day of Judgement will be blessed with Paradise, which shall be his eternal abode.]

    Here is stated that faith and purification of morals is objective of Religion and all of shari’ah is it’s corollary. And shari’ah has been changed many times. So in today’s world, if someone thinks he can achieve purification with very less implementation of shari’ah but more of other things like modern meditation or anything like that, does religion have any problem with it?

    And please tell me if someone is not following shari’ah will he be a sinner? I mean is following shari’ah compulsory?
